Regents Park

Well it had been a while since I'd been there and I was a uni with a few hours of daylight left...so I went to Regents Park 
I spent most of my time in at the eastern end of the lake. The first thing I saw was a couple of wood pigeons sitting on the bridge. One was very tolerant and I took this from a metre away

Kensington Gardens and Green Park

On my way to the Natural History Musuem I walked through Green Park and Kensington Gardens. In Green Park these greylags looked a little lost - as there are no ponds or lakes in Green Park (unlike all the other royal parks!)

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 lol
They're always to far away or in poor light:rolleyes:

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:

Regents park - the last heronry report
Tuesday, 29. April 2008, 21:07:57
Yesterday I went to Regents Park for a quick wander round. Ill start by concluding the heronry reports. Most of the chicks appeared to have fledged now so there won't be anything to report soon. I did see some adults collecting stick thou, so I guess we'll see.
The grey heron fledglings are still around and I saw at least 3 in the park. Here is one of them

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:
Heronry report 14: and other activity in regents park
Wednesday, 2. April 2008, 23:58:16
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!
