This morning around the res'r at Ogden was more about watching the floor rather than the sky ! The ice was still well in evidence around the perimeter footpath and suspected I was on the earlier trail of BS !.
Best of the small birds was at least 2 very confiding flocks of Long-tailed Tits, maybe around 25 in total.
A Raven went over high, 'cronkin' and a Kingfisher was down in the sluice below the embankment.
10 Tufted Duck were on the water with a few Black-headed and Common Gulls along with 1 juvenile Lesser Black-backed Gull
Headed off to Booth Wood res'r early afternoon. After a short while searching with JB and BK the Black Redstart showed well feeding along the fissure cracks in the quarry face. A pretty special bird for this time of year. No camera with me. Also 4 Lapwing flyovers and on my way home a single Buzzard went high over the dam wall.
