And so it continues with another day of thick fog on the tops. Leeshaw was as yesterday, weather-wise,
with light mist and very dark and wet with early rain turning to drizzle on a light NE>2 at 5 degrees.
A good count of geese in the big field before moving off to the Upper Marsh fields with around 180 Canada and 100 Greylag but nothing special among them.
Over 200 mixed Common and Black Headed but only a single LBB. Otherwise just the usual Mallards etc and no sign of yesterdays Little Grebe.
On then to the Sladen valley and Lower Laithe Reservoir with several LBBs out on the gantry and water, along with a single Herring and several Common and Black Headed.
A juv Gt Crested Grebe was out on the water as well as 2 Cormorant and the usual geese and Mallard.
November is usually renown for being the foggiest month of the year up on the tops but after Sept/Oct it can only get better ?
