NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.

Another dabble at Ogden

 

                                    1 of 3 Heron

                                    Single drake Tufted
                                    3 Herring gulls





A much fresher morning with near full cloud on a moderate WSW>3 at 15 degrees.
  Very much the same birds picked up on a walk around the perimeter of the water and once again plenty sound but very little sightings in the dense foliage.
   The Pied Flycatcher has either moved on or found a mate and stopped singing whilst plenty song from the usual Blackcaps, Chiffchaff and Willow Warbler with the addition today of a very vocal Nuthatch as well as the usual common woodland species.
  A pair of Grey Wagtails are feeding young whilst 3 Heron were on the waters edge, with 2 Canada geese and a single drake Tufted on the water. Gulls are slowly returning with a single LBB and 3 Herring gulls. Herring gulls are the one to watch now as  June/ July is the peak time for Yellow Legged Herring gull, usually found in with Lesser Black Backed.
    Dry and sunny tomorrow on a light sou'westerly starting off at 12 degrees.
