At the risk of getting boring, more gulls

1st winter Black Headed

Twins

1st winter BH with a problem on its lore.

A non birding day today due to thick fog and freezing rain this morning, the fog then persisted all day, even lower down was murky and grey.
A nice flock of 18 Waxwings flew over Pellon Lane this pm heading for the bottom end of Hopwood Lane as we were on our way to Asda which stopped it being a birdless day for me other than the gulls, house sparrows and starlings feeding through the fog.
The gull photos are more of yesterdays batch, just something to look at till the fog clears which they say could be Friday, at least its thawing well.
Back to work tomorrow for 3 days then a long weekend to get the new year list cracking. I think my local area list is at 120 this year and in this weather its where it will stay.
