Monday, 3. March 2008, 23:57:14

Friday, 29. February 2008, 22:30:49
Today it was cloudy. Then it started to rain. But I tried looking for reptiles at a locality I know, with out much hope. And yet, under some roofing felt I found this guy (and a friend)
Heronry report 9
Thursday, 28. February 2008, 21:50:36
Today I went for a wander around regents park. Activity at the heronry was the same as it has been recently. No sign of any chicks today, but I'm sure there are some up there. Hopefully when they get a bit bigger ill be able to see there heads poking up over the top of the nest. The first interesting thing I saw after walk on from the heronry was a pair of ruddy shelducks, one of which is shown here:
Visit to RSPB rainham marshes
Wednesday, 27. February 2008, 17:54:33
Today I visited Rainham Marshes and I thought it give a brief report. There were a few things like egrets and lapwings about but most were way too far away to photograph. there were however a few small birds showing, but just in range, so apologies the low photo quality. Such as this meadow pipit
Britains Biggest Bird
Tuesday, 26. February 2008, 18:54:04
What is the UKs biggest bird? It’s a question that comes up in conversions between birders, questions from inquisitive youngsters (and adults) and, I guess, pub quizzes. So what is the answer? Well there it depends on how you define ‘biggest,’ i.e. is it the tallest, the heaviest or biggest wingspan?
We’ll start with the tallest:

Scorpionflys

Scorpionflies are one of my favourites. They are also probaly one of the oddest looking creatures in the UK 
here is a male demostrating the long jaws, dark pattern/spots on the wings and the 'scorpion tail' from which it gets its name.

Wednesday, 20. February 2008, 23:50:02
I start today with and admission. I missed something. Apparently some eggs have hatched in the heronry (I wasn't aware any had been laid!) and according to the writer of regents park birds chicks have been heard. Thers no reason to doubt this as this guys obviously know his stuff and I believe surveys the park in the mornings when its quieter.
Anyway on with the report. The light was awful, as the fog never lifted so no photos of herons on the nest. However a foriegn school group turned up and the herons descended from their nests

Heronry report 7: with a foxy cameo
Tuesday, 19. February 2008, 21:26:47
In Regents park, many animals are more tame than you will find in most places. Black headed gulls, dunnock and of course the grey herons, are far more approachable than most places. But today I saw something I would never have expected. But I start at the beginning and with the heronry. pLenty of herons on nests, the highlight being this lovely pair
Heronry report 6: including coot fighting photos
Sunday, 17. February 2008, 21:57:21
The latest trip to Regents Park was on saturday. A quick inspection showed a few herons on the nests. Not as active as previously seen.
But this wasn't the most interesting thing going on...
