After a wet early morning the skies brightened and I took the car to Ogden Water.
Parked next to a big pot hole filled with water without realising the consequences - the car was well splattered when I got home.
After lunch we enjoyed a walk along the Thornton Railway Track to the Queensbury tunnel and back.
A bit later on I had a Bog Trot along the local fields to Ned Hill Road and back.
Very pleasant with sunshine but windy again.

Quiet as usual (around the water anyway - didn't venture further).

Pair of Goosander although the female bird was not interested in price charming.
