Another galloping wind but just a smidgin of rain this morning. Birds very hard to come by; just a few small gulls on the sports field and nothing on the full to the brim flood. Persecution Rd produced a singing Mistle Thrush, a pr Greenfinch, 1 Blackbird ditto Robin. The Ned Hill sludge canal was just that - nothing doing.
Ogden Plantation gave up 7/8 Fieldfare & 1 Redwing. These were in with a party of Woodpigeon and Starling. A Moorhen was strutting around the household. The storms have felled 2/3 trees here, one blocking the path down to the reservoir. Only a few small gulls were out in the middle with nothing else of note. Well, I suppose I did see a couple Coal Tit by the Lodge House.
A Tawny Owl 🦉 howled once at Stod Fold where a few tits were active. Mixenden Res held 3 Moorhen similar LTT and a reduced number of gulls, mostly small uns.
