Ogden – Monday Evening

17:40 – 18:40

Ogden water quiet this evening.
A Heron flew over > NE.
A couple of Cormorants, a fishing adult GCG, a Juv. GCG and 2 Tufed Duck were seen on the water.
Also a new arrival of a white duck – don’t know the sp. (Aylesbury / Indian Runner?).
Also about a scrawny young Heron on the water’s edge and  Green Woodpecker calling near the North End.

(Later on a scumbag would come out to play leaving me over £100 out of pocket for a new window in my Jalopy.)

Swalesmoor.


Earlier in the day a quick circular walk on Hag Lane behind the Ski Slope at Swalesmoor revealed c30 Goldfinch, c50 Startling, 8 Mistle Thrush and a Kestrel.

  1. The white duck is probably and Aylesbury domestic type, I've seen it on the far bottom pond of Soilage also.
    Pity the toe rag window smasher didn't get run over by a passing tank transporter, accidentally of course.

  2. Shame a good days birding was spoilt by a brain dead nomark.
