Beating the rain, Ogden

 

                                    Usual 4 Herons


                                Deep gullies at the North end.
                                    Long staying Gt Crested Grebe
                                    2 of 5 Cormorant

                                Scattering of gulls on the east bank
                                herring gull



                                    Around 40 LBB

                                    Common gull numbers building.

Dense fog this morning at Queensbury but luckily Ogden was just below the cloud base but very dark with a light NE>3 at 12 degrees. Slightly misty but clear enough to do the job.
    Very few gulls this morning with around 40 LBB, 4 Herring, 14 Common and around 30 Black Headed. No gulls to get the books out for today but always worth sifting through in hopes.
     Otherwise, just a normal Ogden morning with the usual Grebe, Cormorants, 2 Grey Wags and Herons, with yesterdays Teal and Tufted well gone.
   A good chance of rain tomorrow on a light sou'westerly at 14 degrees.
