Raggalds Flood this morning
No YL gull at Ogden
Heading for Mixenden
Most Black Headeds now lost summer plumage.
0730- 0930 hrs Strong SW 5-6 Heavy rain throughout, low cloud on the moor.
A disappointing morning with Fly Flatts covered in low cloud and horizontal drizzle whilst heavy frequent showers followed me around Ogden. Raggalds flood had a good collection of gulls first thing but no sign of the Yellow Legged at any of the sites.

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.
