Yeadon Tarn

Saturday 4th February a.m.
 It was still very cold when we reached Yeadon Tarn just -2°C, with most of
the water frozen over. All the birds were together in a small area which was
still clear of ice, BH and Common Gulls were together at the other side of the
Tarn on the ice. Walking round we saw Carrion Crows,Magpie,Starlings,House
Sparrows,Blackbirds and a couple of Moorhen up a tree.
