Raggalds to Mixenden

Light rain and misty throughout visibility poor
Raggalds Flood 2 BHG only. Plenty more on the sports field.
Soil Hill 1 Meadow Pipit & Wren.
Ogden Res was difficult to work but I'm positive the Teal from yesterday have left.
A few large gulls seen but accurate Id  impossible.


The old trooper BHG bearing leg ring X2T6 was on the railings. This bird originates from the Hiddensee N Germany.
6 Coal Tit seen, 2 Goldcrest, 5 Chaffinch, 3 Blackbird and one unid flying Thrush.

Mixenden Res was mist shrouded to the extent I could only see halfway across the water but I'm pleased to say a drake Goldeneye has joined the long staying female.
Canadas & Jackdaws in the fields here.
