Today was a slow day, about as slow as a Sloth on 10 mg of Mogadon. Soil was just Hellish; Dullards, 2 Sly Lark, Canada's.
Ogden had 3 Hurrying Gull, c22 Lazy Black-backed, many BHGs, 2 Chiffchaff, 1 Blackcap, 1 Jay, 1 GSW.
A pr of Kestrel livened up the golf course but nothing could help the route to Mixenden Res. It was so bad that a calling Green Woodpecker at Stod Fold was seen later at Hunter Hill in flight retrieving it's notes then regurgitating them!
Mixenden was full of people both on and off the water plus a few Swallow & House Martin.
I've just realised I haven't had a 2018 Common Sandpiper here, the same applies to Ogden.
Finally to make the day really special I just read that the RSPB ringers managed to ensure the demise of an Osprey chick in Scotland. Marvellous, champion, terrific.
