Gull numbers building possibly due to lack of
shoreline at Oxenhope.
Common gull back in summer dressage
With this afternoon on grand daughter( x3 ) duty in Shibden Park and sorting out a loan to pay for the ice cream down there it was a late finish so just time for a gull check at Ogden.
Gull numbers are building well which is probably due to the lack of shoreline at Oxenhope so hopefully we,ll be turning up a Med or Caspian gull in the near future.
Nothing Scoter wise out on the water but 6 Cormorants present using both the water and shoreline. This number should increase over the next few weeks.
Lesser Black Backed..................123 of various ages plus sev pink legged
Herring ......................................2 ad
Black Headed.............................78 again of all age groups
Common Gull.............................2 Ad full summer plumage.
