Back at Ogden.

 

                                East bank, Yellow Legged Herring with LBBs, centre.




                                YL Herring, centre
                                        YL centre
                                        Little Grebe
                                    Very few gulls on east bank.


A part sunny morning with dark clouds rolling over but remaining dry on a W>3 at 12 degrees.
    Once again, a low count of gulls with around 100 mixed but including an adult Yellow Legged Herring gull in with the LBBs on the west bank before heading off >NE.
    Just 3 Cormorant present, one of which was the bird with the red leg ring whilst the long staying Little Grebe was still present and feeding well. The only sign of sky movement was a trickle of Swallows >SE but otherwise the skies were empty. 
    A female Blackcap was flitting about in a rowan but remained very camera shy.
 Showing very wet and windy throughout tomorrow on a moderate to strong SW with heavy rain starting off at 10 degrees.
