Another bright but icy cold morning at Leeshaw with a NW>3 at 2 degrees.
Another massive count of gulls but all in a silly mood, as yesterday, flying around frantically from one field to another and never settling for more than a few minutes at a time.
Herrings, along with 2 LBBs were more relaxed on the water but again ,nothing out of the norm to be found. A few Mallard and a single Greylag goose were on the water. Otherwise just the usual species.
Ogden mid afternoon produced another mass of gulls on the water which peaked at around 400 but here again, nothing special. The gulls were easier to check today in the sunshine and all
facing into the NW wind so they could be viewed side on from the west bank.
Not a bird to be found in the west bank Alders other than Blackbird and Robin so the bird of the day had to be the Dipper down in the sluice gate area.
