Sunday 3rd February a.m.
A cold morning in Cullingworth with a temperature of -3°C with dry conditions but a chilly wind blowing.Walking was difficult with the lying snow in many places now turned to ice, the Reservoir was 50% covered in ice with c100
BH Gulls and the same number of
Canadas. A mix of
Commons and
Herring Gulls too with two
Mute Swans and twelve
Tufteds.At the top end of the reservoir there were four
Goldeneye,four
Wigeon,four
Goosanders and one
Teal.Four
Cormorants circled the reservoir before spending a short time in the water.
