Cold Edge Ogden Mixenden Session

A WSW wind which allowed Cold Edge to pick up a little on the last visit but not by much.
12 Goldfinch, 1 Tufted Duck ditto Kestrel. 5 Swallow, 2 Meadow Pipit, c110 Canada & c20 BHG.


Ogden Water proved more interesting apart from the silent woodland. I got a Dipper in the embankment channel; has to be my first in several months.



A Cormorant was on the W shoreline. The GC Grebe stayed out in the middle. 5 Swallow & the usual mix of Gulls in reduced numbers than of late.



Mixenden was of exercise value only - again.
