Ecky thump, what a morning. Tour of the ressies.

                           Ogden,  Horrendous and bird less
        Leeshaw, brighter with torrential rain
                                           Full to the brim
                                    Leeshaw falls, the overflow
                         Lower Laithe, Torrential rain and gales
                                       Overflowing
             Fly Flatts, like the end of the world was coming

                                    One seed feeding area gone
            The other seed feeding area gone
           New area, side of the road. This is where last years
                                  Snow Bunting was.
                         Raggalds Flood overflowing
             Roper Lane Lapwings through the lashing rain
                       A field worth watching opposite the
                           old school, Roper Lane

A real horrendous morning to tour the reservoirs with near gale force winds and torrential rain throughout .Several roads were flooded causing diversions and at the end of it all the best place was Roper Lane 2 minutes from home with a field heaving with Gulls, Lapwings and Starlings but the  rain lashing across made it impossible to scan for Goldies etc.
