Yeadon Tarn

Monday 16th June a.m.
 A dull morning with a temperature of 14°C on our arrival at Yeadon Tarn.Here we saw the usual
birds Mallards,Coots,Canadas,Moorhen,Mute Swans & Great Crested Grebes.The place seemed
to be full of chicks with Coots,Moorhen,Canadas all being successful & even the GC Grebes had a
chick.The GC Grebe chick looked as though it might take a Coot chick for its breakfast at one
point.Overhead were Swallows,House Martins & Swift as we enjoyed our walk round the Tarn.
