Here are the photos I took on a quick wizz around Regents Park. First up is a photo of a grebe in its mouth - but as always is not great quality lolThey're always to far away or in poor light:rolleyes:
Over a week ago I had a wander around Regents Park to show a classmate around. We saw a few things. The first notable thing was the family of mandarin ducks
In thought Id post the last photos from my trip to Devon. First up is one of the wren family I spotted in the garden before we left for Becky falls on Tuesday
Well had a great time at the zoo, taking my 30,000th photo with my camera! Anyway today I thought I'd run through the wildlife near the cottage I'm staying at. First up what I saw yesterday: A pair of mute swans a raising a couple of cygnets
Today I visited Regents Park just to be different In fact I visited Monday as well as Rapheals Park, thought I appear to have misplaced those photos Anyway back to today, and greating me as I entered where the red crested pochard ducklings that I also saw on Monday. 3 of these sat nicely on bank while laid down on the gravel to take some photos. This area is often covered by the resident flock of pigeons (they were a couple of metres away today), so it was probably coated in mixture of poo, feathers and parasites. Was worth it though:
With the work experience, exam revison and bad weather, I havent been out nearly as much as I'd have liked, but today mad e up for it. Today was what I would refer to as a GOOD day. Activity heron wise was limited (hence this isn't a 'heronry report') but there was some herons, more on them later. I have to start with the two highlights. First up, the kestrels. On my previous visit report I mentioned and photographed (poorly) the nesting pair of kestrels. Well today Tony Duckett, the wildlife officver was kind enough to let me get closer to the male:
Its been atleast a week since Ive been to Regents Park, so it was time for a visit. First up, of course the herons. Adults were a bit thin on the ground, for Regents Park anyway. The chicks are growing fast, some might even be fledging soon, judging by there size!
