Yeadon Tarn

Sunday 26th March a.m.
 Another frosty start with sunshine and a temperature of 7°C at Yeadon Tarn where I was greeted with a singing Chiffchaff and soon after I saw a second bird.There was a team rowing on the water so all the Tufted Ducks had been pushed to the airport end I counted 35 of them.Then I spotted a male Shoveler which came quite close looking wonderful in the morning sunshine. There were nine Mute Swans, I spotted three Tags Yellow 232 and 437 and a Red Tag 511Y. Others seen were Mallards, Coots, Greenfinch,LT Tit and other common species.
