Thick fog on the tops this a.m. at 0645hrs with light drizzle and a cool S>4 so reluctantly back down to Ogden which was below the cloud base but grey and damp.
A full walk round the reservoir produced next to nothing other than a couple of Willow Warblers and the usual Robins, Wrens, Dunnocks and tits.
A pair of Grey Wagtails in and around the overflow brought the camera into action for the first time, both busy gathering food and taking it off across the moor.
In desperation I took the top east end track where Redstarts were found in years gone by and although it was busy with newly fledged Robins and Dunnocks that was as far as it went.
Several LBB gulls were moving >S through the Causeway Foot col.
Raggalds flood held the usual Pied Wags, Swallows and 2 Lapwing which kept getting mobbed with passing LBB gulls.
Mick Cunningham has now kindly verified NKs strange looking warbler to be a Willow Warbler sending an in depth description of its ID, thanks for that Mick, see Queensburybirder.
