Ogden in the Mist.
Yet another misty, damp, cool day which attempted to brighten up after lunch but failed miserably.
To brighten our day we had a lunchtime visit to Wilde's café at Crossroads.
We enjoyed a light lunch of a beacon sandwich in Nimble bread followed by cheery pie.
Light being rather apt. given it's November the 5th - don't you think.
Bangers and mash for tea - would you believe ?
Later, Sue dropped me at Ogden so I could gaze dreamily into the setting sun - well perhaps not.
A misty circuit of the water was followed by my usual trudge home via the farms etc.
Quiz:
Which actress starred in Little Children, Enigma and All the King's Men?
Birds:-
Usual Gulls here as far as I could tell in the gloom.
Treecreeper.
Goosander.
Great Spotted Woodpecker.
5 Starling.
8 Mistle Thrush.
10 Canada Geese.
Gulls in the lower farm fields - difficult to see.
C20 Chaffinch in the east side trees / bushes dropped periodically onto the water side stones to feed.
They kept very well hidden behind some close knit branches which still have leaves.
I thought there were about 12 birds until about 20 birds flushed, flew over my head, into the west side conifers.
I did not get much on any of them and my photos are rubbish - but - It bodes well for a Brambling turning up.
