Ogden Reservoir.

 

                                    East Bank gulls


                                    Ad Herring
                                    2 CY Herring gull
                                    Very few on the east bank.
                                    Cormorant with Orange LH leg ring 
                                    Silver metal ring, RH
                                        Ring 546.  Ringed at Cheshire, 2021

                                    Herring 2 CY

A bright part cloud/ part sunny morning at Ogden on a cool SW>2 at 10 degrees.
     A bit better on gull numbers this morning with around 40 LBB, 6 Herring and several Common and Black Headed. The Gt Crested Grebe is still on site along with 6 Cormorants, one of which was wearing an orange LH leg ring, number 546, and the usual silver metal RH leg ring. This looks like a new in bird, or one which I've failed to pick out previously.
    Otherwise steady away with just a few Swallows >S.
Looks like a waterproofs day tomorrow with rain throughout on a light sou'westerly at 12 degrees.
