Staring through the murk
This is as good as it got
Still 2 Wheatears blogging
A strange morning weather wise with clear skies over Bradford to the east but dense fog at Fly Flatts which kept threatening to clear as the sun broke through only to be enveloped with another bank of cloud. Short periods of blue sky above but fog below kept appearing
in which birds could be seen to be moving and the morning had potential for a good count if it wasnt for the visibility. Even in the thick fog Mipits could be heard moving over but the fog persisted throughout, even though a phone call to DCB just over the hill found them to be mainly in the clear.
