Heron take off
Kestrel
Off fishing
1 of 2 Common Sandpipers
An early morning visit to Fly Flatts was quickly aborted due to thick fog so back to Ogden which was just below the cloud base but terrible conditions with heavy horizontal drizzle in a strong NNW>5 and occasion heavy rain showers.
The water was empty other than 12 Canada geese and about a dozen Mallard with a Heron on the shoreline along with 2 Common Sandpipers. Willow Warblers and Robins were singing and 1 Garden Warbler showed itself briefly whilst 5 LBBs went overhead >SW.
Typical Tern moving weather this morning but not for me.
12 Canada Geese
6 Willow Warblers
1 Garden Warbler
