Common gulls staring to linger
Good shoreline but only Canadas present
Black Headeds through in numbers
Carrion crow on duckling watch
Black Headeds through >N
Strange how I seemed to have more birding time before I went semi retired but hopefully that will change when I get on top of the jobs I have lined up.
1 hour spare this evening for a quick dog walk around Ogden to find no Oystercatchers present and no sign of the Common Sandpiper, Goosander or Tufted, a complete clear out.
Gulls were the things of interest with 8 LBB on the water, 3 Commons on the banking and 6 Black Headed around the edges with a count of 32 BHG fly overs >N possibly heading for Oxenhope.
Otherwise Willow Warblers and Wrens were in full song whilst 2 Kestrels were over Ned Hill.

NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.
