Raggalds Flood (Wigeon) (a.m.) / Bradshaw Fields (p.m.).

A fine mild morning made a pleasant change this morning but the rain and strong winds

arrived after lunch.

Raggalds Flood:

A very nice find by NK (via DJS) this morning of a pair of Wigeon on Raggalds Flood.

Unfortunately we were at Howden Mobility in Keighley at the time.

We had a trip to make to Bingley on the way home, but as luck would have it

the Wigeon pair were still present when we eventually got there.

Bradshaw Fields:

Windy with some rain this afternoon but I manged to pick quite a dry bit for my

usual outing up the local fields, which made a change.
