Very strange visit to Kingsbury Water Park as when I arrived there it was snowing, then there was bout of bright sunshine, followed by more snow, then sun and finally back to snowing again, no matter what the weather it was an enjoyable visit all the same.
Highlight of the day was seeing a pair of Egyptian Goose, not only is it the first time I've seen them here it's actually the first time I've ever seen one, sadly as soon as they saw me they went onto an island so I didn't manage to get any photos, still great to finally see one all the same, other highlights were seeing Goldcrest, Blackcap, Little Egret, House Martin who numbered in their hundreds along with Swallows.
It was good to see a whole set of new trees had been planted and even better still they have been planted using biodegradable tree guards.
Birds seen today were, Goldcrest, Blackcap, House Sparrow, Dunnock, Wren, Robin, Chiffchaff, Blue Tit, Great Tit, Long Tailed Tit, Chaffinch, Starling, Blackbird, Woopdigeon, Jackdaw, Carrion Crow, Magpie, House Martin, Swallow, Egyptian Goose, Little Egret, Mute Swan, Great Crested Grebe, Little Grebe, Tufted Duck, Mallard, Gadwall, Coot, Greylag Goose and Canada Goose.
Also seen today were the following waterfowl on nests, Great Crested Grebe (1), Mute Swan (2) and Coot (4).
