Ahead of the weather front

                Reed Bunting and Meadow Pipit at war
                                            m Reed Bunting

 Late afternoon and with the weather front on its way I thought it worth watching a reservoir to see if anything drops in.
Ogden was the handiest choice but on arrival it was like Blackpool front with cars and people everywhere so a quick about turn found me at Leeshaw again for the second time today.
I arrived the same time as the rain, blown on by an increasing SW>4 but conditions looked good for Terns or Waders although 1 hour watching proved me wrong.
The unseen Cuckoo was calling away in the rain whilst a Reed Bunting and a Meadow Pipit squabbled for territory around the muck pile.
No sign of the Ringed Plover but there were fishermen present.
Otherwise the sp. list was as this mornings report.

Raggalds flood on the way back held 1 Lapwing , 3 Pied Wagtails and a single Redshank.
