Ogden Water To Deadsville

Well well the heavy rain failed to miserablise, I stayed dry and managed a pr of annuals to 🥾 boot 😁.
Ogden: pr Tufted Duck, 3 LBBG which didn’t stay long.
1 Blackcap, 3/4 WW, 1 GSW ditto Grey Wagtail.




Around Stod Fold I was surprised to get a pr Swift in flight as it was overcast and cold. These are my latest ever by some 15/16 days. A pr Swallow followed through a few minutes later. A pr Curlew were in the vicinity as was a single Barn Owl.

Not going to mention the final venue 😏 but I will say that a low flying Buzzard was struggling in the headwind at Bradshaw at the start of proceedings.
