Ogden/Fly Flatts

FLY FLATTS                          An icy SE corner
                                            Snow mostly gone now

OGDEN                               2 of 6 Herring gulls
                                      Single male Gt Spotted Woodpecker.



 A poor morning with rain and drizzle on a SW>4 increasing SW>5 at 4 degrees.
                              Just a check from the promenade area as the circumference track was very wet and muddy and I didnt fancy bathing the dogs .
                              The water held around 50 small gulls as well as a single adult LBB along with 5  2cy Herrings and 1 adult as well as the usual Mallards.
                             All other activity was around the lodge house area with several Chaffinch, Tits and a male Gt Spotted Woodpecker.
                             A stop off at Fly Flatts to get some seed down now that tha snow has gone found it near deserted bird wise with Red Grouse, Carrion Crows and a Raven. 
                              Looking like a very wet week ahead.
