                     Several blogging Meadow Pipits this morning
                   Few Dunnocks present
                                  The res.

                               2 Herons working the far shore

                                Getting the mobbing treatment

A cold wet start to the morning with heavy rain which cleared by 0800hrs leaving clear skies with an icy cold SW>5.
Nothing of great excitement today either on the water or in the sky with Starlings and Woodpigeons being the star movers with very few Thrushes.
A small flock of Great Tits came in but after landing briefly moved on >S.
5 Teal showed for a couple of minutes on the water before disappearing up to the west end and out of sight.
Nice to chat to DCB at Oxenhope on the phone and compare notes.
