Several of the Ogden boxes being used .
OGDEN. 0800-1000hrs Heavy drizzle, full cloud, strong W>5.
An early start at Fly Flatts was aborted due to near gale force winds and horizontal drizzle which I can put up with but thick fog put the tin hat on it.
More sheltered and clear at Ogden though very poor birdwise. Several birds were singing but deep in the wood and the water held nothing but a few Mallard.
Suprisingly with all the shore exposed there were no waders or wagtails to be seen other than 2 Heron on the NW banking.
LBB gulls continued to move west but none came down and the Terns Id ordered for this morning did,nt appear.
2 Heron
17 LBB gulls.....................>W
21 Goldfinch
1 Sparrowhawk
+ usual sp.
will have to try get out round tea time for another dabble, watch this space!

No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.
