Gale force winds and heavy drizzle made me decide against Fly Flatts so it was back to Ogden again to find a strong NW>6 with early light drizzle. A real photographers nightmare with it no really coming light until I was leaving at 1000hrs.
Very little about with the same small gulls on the water and a few Tit flocks around but no sign of Long Tailed.
Managed to find one Siskin skulking in the bottom of Alders and refusing to have its picture taken
A count of 140 Mallard which is over 100 down on this time last year probably due to the mild weather.
Strangely no Fieldfares around the Syke Lane fields.
