Another try at Ogden.

 

                                        Plenty Robins, no continentals.

                                        1 of at least 3 Goldcrest.



A beautiful morning at Ogden with full sun and a very light W>2 at minus 1 degree.
   The east and north bank trees were much busier, being in the sun, whilst there was nothing in the west bank Alders, which were very dark in the shade.
      Although lively there was nothing untoward with several Long Tailed, Coal and Blue Tits as well as the common woodland stuff. At least 3 Goldcrests were very active in the overhanging waterside trees.
    A handful of small gulls on the water as well as the resident Mallards.
Good to bump into Pete Grba, who I have'nt seen for many years, so a good talk about back in the good old days when birding was at it peak, plenty good birders and plenty good birds.
    Chance of some rain and snow for morning on a moderate SW at 3 degrees.
