We had a visit to Sue's sister in Soyland on a right grotty morning today.
After some coffee and chat we had a short diversion to Ringstone Reservoir above Barkisland, the fog thickened as we got there.
Plenty of Gulls in the surrounding fields as we headed up there.
I just had my camera with me today (no bins) but I doubt the bins would have helped much with my observations.
2 Canada Geese were just visible on the water and birds calls alerted me to 2 Oystercatcher that made a quick fly past.
My first local Oystercatcher of 2022.
I took a few random photos of the shoreline (yes there is a good bit of shoreline, even after all the recent rain) and tried to lighten them in Picasa.
Picasa does do a remarkable job of lightening the photos (but it does not do a lot for the colour) - but if there ain't nowt there - there ain't nowt there.
Poor day today John. I did Cromwell earlier but it wasn't much better than up here. Just a few Siskin and that was as good as it got.
