Another Yellow Legged for Leeshaw

 

                                    Gulls on the gantry
                                Single lonely Robin
                                Low cloud base



                                    BHGs
                                    2cy Yellow Legged Herring

                                Poor distant pics in the mist and drizzle



Again, Leeshaw was just below the cloud base with thick fog on the tops. A light SW>3 at 6 degrees with dark drizzle clouds.
       A much quieter morning than yesterday with just a few geese in the big field and a lower count of gulls with around 150 Black Headed, 4 LBB and 12 Herring, one of which was a different Yellow Legged than yesterdays birds, this being a 2cy.
      The usual female Goosander was on the water along with Mallards whilst a single Robin and Goldfinch were moving around the banking. Otherwise, just the usual species and the beck still too fast and high for the Dipper and Kingfisher.
