Dense fog as promised this morning so with Ogden out of bounds by car it was down to Harold Park and Park Dam which are winter venues but plenty this morning to keep the interest going.
Great Crested Grebe at both sites as well as a very low count of Tufted plus the usual Mallard, Coot and Moorhen whilst 2 Mute Swan were at Harold Park and 11 at Park Dam. Park Dam held 3 LBB and 2 Herring gull.
No doubt, the highlight of the morning was Hirundines and Swifts with several Swallows feeding over the water at Harold Park and an unbelievable number of Swallows at Park Dam, feeding over the water and fields as well as lined up on the telegraph wires.
A good count of Sand Martin were also over the dam with a lower count of House Martin, whilst several Swifts were high up in the sky.
A better morning for tomorrow with a light NW at 6 degrees and a mix of cloud and sunshine, clouding over after midday and a chance of showers.
