An evening check on Ogden found it very quiet around the water front with only 5 LBB gulls and around 50 BHGs.
Nothing else on the water other than Mallards with the Gt Crested Grebes and Canadas not present.
A short vis mig watch from the top car park showed slight signs of movement but the same amount of time watching from the Ned Hill watch point clocked nothing other than gulls heading to Oxenhope.
