Bradshaw - Soil Hill Top - Ogden Water (Thur)

9:25 - 13:45

A fairly long outing on a glorious 'crisp' day with wall-wall-sunshine.
I tried Soil Hill again for a rarity but no joy - the 'breeze' on the top of the north slope was an ear stinger.

Not as many Gulls at Ogden today and I did not see anything special in among them.

Ogden had a lot of 'tourists' given the good weather.
Good to chat to Janice and Sal in the visitors centre 'cafe'.
