Ogden had heavy drizzle which ceased slightly mid morning but much calmer though very dull light.
The first birds spotted were a group of 9 Wigeon in the middle of the water which kept briefly coming ashore to graze. A Gt Crested grebe in winter outfit kept with them when they were on the water.
A fall of up to 100 Chaffinch were around the waters edge with good numbers of LT Tits, whilst 15 Redwing were flying about the tree tops.
A flock of 22 Crossbills flew over the promenade from the direction of Mixenden and landed up in the plantation and on the way home a moving flock of 85 Redwing flew >W over Perseverence Rd.
