Gulls in the Dog and Gun field
Only 2 Herring present
Black headed losing their hood now.
Leeshaw, 1 of 2 Oystercatchers
LBBs on the north shore
A nasty hot sticky morning with a light NW>2 at 17 degrees with some shade from the 50% cloud. Leeshaw, was expected, stagnant in the poor conditions with very little to report. A few LBB gulls were on the north shore along with around 50 Black Headed and a few Lapwing as well as 2 Oystercatchers but everything reluctant to move.
The only small migrants were Linnets and Meadow Pipits whilst a single female Goosander was on the water along with the geese and Mallards.
On both journeys past the Dog and Gun field around 40 LBBs were present as well as 2 Herring and a few Black Headed but no sign of the Yellow Legged today.
Another disappointing forecast for tomorrow with more heat and sunshine on a low south easterly, bring back the wind and drizzle.
