Horton Bank CP

More Bog  trotting from 1030-1130 hrs.
Not so much variety on the water this time but the 29 large gulls on it kept me occupied. One was an adult LBBG while the remainder appeared to be either 2CY or 3CY Herring. Of course there is always a chance some of the young birds were LBBG as I didn't go through everyone with a microscope. 5 BHG were also seen.



1 noisy Little Grebe was present along with the Coots and Moorhens. There were a pr each of Canadas & Mute Swan. These and others werel being fattened up by J Hogg and friends.



Arboreal types were hard to come by but included 1 male Bullfinch, 2 LTT, 3 Blackbird, Robins etc.
I met a dog called Nigel; the owner is either a genius or a bad judge of character. The jury is still out on this one.
