A walk in the rain. Ogden to Withins.

                                    Looking down the calder valley
                                            Soil Hill on the horizon
                                    Halfway to the Withins
Mixenden Res . 1 Hour after this photo an Osprey flew over.  DJS.
                                        3 wet boys.

Heavy rain and slight SW >3 easing slightly by 0915hrs.
Walked from Ogden to the Withins with the hope of Wheatear, Ring Ouzel, Stonechat , none of which were present.
As the rain eased with the south westerly the skies looked just right for Osprey and with the view I had down the valley I thought I was in with a chance. Image my thoughts when I just arrived home to receive a phone call from DJS saying an Osprey was heading up the valley Id just been looking down. A great tick from your kitchen window Dave, well spotted and thanks for the quick call.
