An early evening trip to Soil Hill had to be aborted due to low cloud so it was on to Ogden where the weather was misty with heavy drizzle and a strong NW>5 which rapidly progressed into torrential rain coming down in stair rods for about 30 minutes before clearing and brightening slightly.
Stuck it out as the conditions were ideal for passing Terns but not tonight Josephine.
Just 2 LBBs on the water along with the usual Canadas and Mallards and passerines were none existent other than 2 Song Thrush and a scattering of Gt Tits.
Raggalds flood still had the 2 Redshank ,which seemed undeterred by the cattle around them ,along with 5 Pied Wagtails and 1 female Wheatear.
