Oxenhope... still quiet! 12-07-2009

0920-1100hr
W F5 rising F6, 15degC at 0900hr, 65km intermittent rain, 6/8, QNH 1004 falling.

Heavy rain overnight starting at c2200hr but ceased apart from showers early am. Very little in the upper sky due presumably to the strong winds but all things considered a good movement SW at low level of LBB Gulls with a few struggling NW. BH Gulls were virtually none existent and single Common Gull (first summer went NW). Just a few low Swifts all going SW.

Moving Birds:
LBB Gull 79 > SW and NW
BH Gull 9 > SW and NW
Common Gull 1 > NW
Swift 17 > SW
