Mist creeping in over the plantation.
Bit brighter looking south.
With Queensbury up above the cloud base this evening I took a chance that Ogden would be below and in the clear and worth a look at in the good conditions with a light NE>3 and light drizzle.
Light conditions were poor and a few bird photos failed with not enough stops on the camera to get the light in.
Bird life was the opposite to what Id expected with quiet conditions on and around the water whilst passerine alley was buzzing.
Surely if these conditions continue through the weekend somethings got to turn up in the area.
