Saturday 3rd October a.m.
Another foggy start to the day as I made my way over to Harold Park on the southern side of Bradford with a temperature of 9°C.The usual
Mallards,Coots,Tufted Duck &
BH Gulls with a
Herring Gull making a quick visit but it was mobbed by the BH Gulls.Good to see the pair of
GC Grebes still with two Juveniles one of which flew a couple of circuits round the lake,maybe thinking of moving on.There were three
Mute Swans, they all had yellow tag numbers which were 162,212 & 900.I had a walk up to the pond where the family of
Moorhen we saw earlier in the year were doing well with the five juveniles nearly as big as their parents.From here I moved down the road to Park Dam, report to follow.N.P.
