More wet and windy, more Ogden

 

                                    Usual 2 Herons


                                    A second drake Tufted arrived

                                    8 Canadas still present
                                    Single Herring gull

                                    Hungry juv Crow.


A very wet and windy start to the morning so another dog walk at Ogden where the weather soon took up with 90% cloud on a light SW>3 at 12 degrees.
     I could have used yesterdays blog again today with a different title with just the same species showing, other than a second Tufted duck appeared as well as 7 LBB gulls and 1 Herring gull on the water. 
   A Kestrel was over the car park whilst a single Goosander flew over mega high >SE just as I was leaving.
  A good report from birder Richard from yesterday with 2 Avocets at Leeshaw reservoir. Unfortunately I didn't get the e mail till I got home this morning so too late to go and check although, chances are, they would have left overnight.
    A dry morning tomorrow with a light southerly starting off at 12 degrees. Low risk of rain p.m.
