Leeshaw Reservoir

                    Plenty over wintering Meadow Pipits

                                          Around 200 small gulls present
                                           Several Fieldfare





                    Distant Little Owl

Tuther side ot  Nab to Leeshaw reservoir on a grey but decent morning on a light NE>3 and keeping below the cloud base that was blanking out Fly Flatts.
                                                                           Always plenty to see here though nothing special showed up, the highlights being Meadow Pipits, Fieldfare and my first Little Owl of the year with only a single sighting last year although its not something I go looking for. Still plenty snow there and icy walking but bird able.
