Same Old Route

An outing of exercise value only all told. A strong W'ly wind loosened a few teeth and tested the insulation properties of one's clothing.

c30 Lapwing at Mountain. Raggalds Flood had just  7 small gulls.
Soil Hell was passage only.
Ogden was gash so much so I thought a distant Gull was a potential Kittiwake but I  now accept it was the manifestation of a rancid imagination.

Mixenden Res. F Goldeneye very actively diving but the drake seems to have departed. I now wonder if this female can't fly through injury. Also 2 Cormorant and small gulls.
