Ogden

I had a drive over to Ogden this afternoon. Very fine drizzle, throughout, blown along on a brisk breeze, made things a bit unpleasant.

Ogden was quite busy again, given the weather.

A lap of the water (ugh it tastes horrible) was followed by a walk down past the golf club and along the stream past the maintenance buildings and back.

Not a lot happening.

Birds:

Chiffchaff calling.

Great Crested Grebe as regular as a ferry boat, up and down the water.

2 Cormorant.

Black Headed Gull.

Mallard.

Lesser Black-backed Gull.

1 juv.  Great Spotted Woodpecker + 1 Calling from the woods.

2 Reed Bunting.

Jay.
