A mixed bag of weather at Ogden early morn with some sunshine and several light showers but always windy with a moderate to strong W>7 gusting 8 at 5 degrees.
A steady session this morning at Ogden with the usual few small gulls on the water whilst several headed >NE high overhead. The Alders were alive with a Tit flock of around 30 birds but all Blue and Great, along with a couple of Treecreepers.
A small flock of 5 Bullfinch were in the waterside trees but only a quick show of the Redpoll flock which seemed reluctant to settle in the heavily swaying trees, so they disappeared back to the shelter of the plantation.
Its looking like these strong winds are with us now till at least the end of the month and plenty rain to come.
