Usual Local Route

An up and down day with a few pockets of activity.
Raggalds Flood was deserted. Soil Hill had Grey Heron, Oystercatcher, pr Lapwing ditto Grey Partridge & Skylarks.
The N slope excavation is  cracking on a pace.

Ogden Res had 5 Goosander back on it. However apart from a Kestrel and a pr Jay woodland action was minimal.
Stod Fold gave me great close up views of a Little Owl in flight close by before it perched and gave me the eyeball from cover.Also a Curlew here.

Mixenden Res was busy with Kayakers and walkers which maybe why the Goldeneye didn't show and what did ain't worth a mention.
