Another depressingly hot day even though the breeze was from the north this evening at Ogden.
Conditions are perfect just now with the water well down and shoreline right around the reservoir which has already invited several gulls down with around 50 Black Headed and 3 Commons with several Lesser Black Backed overhead.
Mallard numbers are increasing with still some very young bumblies, whilst passerines were none existent other than 1 Robin and 2 Goldcrests.
The resident Grey Wagtail was well under the overflow tunnel in the water but no sign of Dipper or Kingfisher for some time now.
A report today from a reliable source of a Whinchat on Broom down the Queensbury old station part way along the Thornton line, may try get down there time permitting this weekend as its a species thats avoided me so far this year.
