Life on the water

10th May 2024 - there were a few interesting species around on Granta Park lake this week, when Andy M took a walk around. There was a family of two adult Canada Goose with their five really quite small goslings, and several Greylag Goose adults. They were joined by an 'almost adult' Mute Swan which was mostly white but still with a few brown juvenile feathers, and both a Little Grebe and a Great Crested Grebe - only the latter of which hung around to have its photo taken.  Several male Mallard and a Moorhen were also spotted there.
