Mixenden Res'r

I checked the res'r in the mist this afternoon in case the recent Ogden or Mount Tabor 1st winter Mediterranean Gull was present. The res' is frozen over except for a small area of free water by the inflow. There were c150 gulls present and coming to bathe but no Med Gull.
125 B H Gulls
25 Common Gulls
1 adult Lesser Black-backed Gull

Checked the site again this morning (Wed). A little more open water but very misty and impossible to check the gulls on the ice. 1 pair of Goosander present was a good sign.
