As expected, dense fog blanketing the whole area so it was down to Ogden in the hope of Whoopers.
Visibility at Ogden was grim just being able to see half way over the water but at least the dogs got their walk.
No retake of last Sundays Whoopers with just 1 m Goldeneye on the water along with a single Cormorant and the usual small gulls and Mallards.
A Sparrowhawk was overhead whilst a Song Thrush burst into song.
Back home at 0900 hrs to get some jobs caught up to as the sky cleared and the sun broke through.
