Yesterday On my way into uni I decided to take the long route via rapheal park to see if I could see any great crested grebe young. The pair there did have young and they were riding on one of their parents backs, but were unfortunatly on the other side of the lake. I did however catch the other parent catch a fish

About 3 weeks ago as part of my long post exam tour of the parks of Romford I wandered through Raphaels park and photographed a coot feeding its chicks(see here, second photo down). I visited again today and in roughly the same spot was a brood of four chicks: they all seemed to have survived and they,ve grown!

On Thursday I finally had a free day and the weather was good 
So I thought I'd head for part of the Ingrebourne river and the parks reserves it flow through: Ingrebourne Nature Reserve, Hornchurch Country Park and Berwick Woods. I started of in Raphaels park as its only a small diversion from the walk to the bus stop. There I was treated to a great crested grebe hunting for breakfast

A while back I promised some video. An now I'm knee deep in revison and soon to be neck deep in something else, unless I get on with it, I thougtht I'd post some of my videos. You may remember the sleepy foxes sunbathing in the park. Well this is when I first saw one of them. I took this photo 
local redwings

I mentioned last month that I had seen redwings in my local area for the first time (see here). Well yeaterday I saw a flock of 41(!) on the field in Raphaels park. I started to creep towards them only for a dog walker to cut across the field in front of me (he could see what I was doing but didn't care 
). So I started again, only for another dog walker to do the same! lol! . Anyway enough with the ranting, here are the photos (apologise for the quality, it was getting dark and there small birds;))

I had a half day yesterday and rather than go Regents park again, I decided to have a walk around my usual haunts and do some recording for the East London bird forum. First stop was Raphaels Park where as I entered I saw a pair of Great crested grebes performing courtship - the phase where they swim so fast that their body rises completely out of the water, at an angle of 45 degrees. Of course I didn't get any photographs of it... But there was another grebe who was more co-operative:
