Not a good day in Queensbury.
A good clear sky first light
Oddball gull back in Foxhill
A beautiful sky early morning but short lived to be replaced with grey skies mid a.m. then strong SSW>5 winds and heavy rain by midday lasting on into the evening.
Plenty corvid and small gull movement until the weather broke leaving empty skies. Foxhill park held 15 Common gulls and 8 Black Headed at lunchtime including the small oddball Common gull.
