Ogden

A calm bright evening

Big Bill coming in to land

A late juv Dunnock

Preening time

Ogden, evening visit.

A once round Ogden this evening provided nothing other than the norm but it got my legs functioning again after 2 days of sitting in a classroom.
Over at the Leeds testing station today around 100+ House Martins were over the area and landing on wires above the fields whilst several Swallows were moving through >S early on this morninmg. By lunch time only a handful of House Martins were left.

Ogden this evening held around 250 gulls, mainly Black Headed with about 20% Common and 3 LBBs. The Little Grebe was still present along with one Tufted and 1 Grey Heron. Swallows were moving well >SW over Ned Hill.
Has anyone had a Sept Swift yet ?
