Greenshank for Ogden



 Passerine Alley ready for next months Yellow Browed Warbler
                                 Few gulls on the water, more on the shoreline

A late trip to Ogden after Morrisons ( 1900hrs ) proved a good decision when a  Greenshank called as I was walking through passerine alley so a dash to the observation point just in time to see it low over the water from the NW corner and break the sky line as it lifted over the promenade wall in the direction of Mixenden reservoir.
My last Ogden Greenshank record was 3 birds together,again in August, in 1990, only a gap of 23 years.
Otherwise things were quiet, despite the perfect evening Osprey sky, just the usual BHGs, 2 LBBs and the Mallard flock which is now growing nicely.
