More fog on the hilltops this morning so arrived at Leeshaw to find it below the cloud base with just light drizzle on a calm N>1 at 3 degrees. By 0930 hrs it clouded over bringing rain.
Around 100 small gulls to scope through, one of these days I,m sure to find a Med, but again poor for big gulls with just a single Herring which soon moved on.
The usual 2 male and 1 female Goosanders were on the water as well as a Cormorant and a few Mallard whilst a Heron flew >S.
A small group of Lapwings were present along with 8 Stock Dove and the unusual sighting of a Great Tit, rarely seen at this site.
Just an hour at Ogden mid afternoon with ,yet again, a poor show of gulls with around 50 small and a single LBB, otherwise just Mallard on the water.
The feeders were busy with the usual Tits etc along with a Nuthatch and a very timid Gt Spotted Woodpecker whilst a Buzzard flew overhead.
The west bank was active with several Goldcrest and at least 4 Treecreeper plus the usual Tits whilst the Kingfisher was again working the west bank stretch.
