Friday 16th January a.m.
The sun was shining brightly by mid morning when I arrived at Yeadon Tarn with a temperature of 5°C. The Tarn was 75% frozen with most of the birds near the boat club, there were c25 Mute Swans and c25 Tufteds. Others were Canadas, Greylag, Moorhen, Coot, BH Gull & Mallard.
I followed on to Knotford Nook just a couple of miles away where most of the water on the Lake was unfrozen at this lower altitude. The Smew was still present but keeping to the other side of the Lake some distance away. Others here were Goldeneye, Tufted, Gadwall, Goosander, Coot & Cormorant.
