Birds on Granta Park

9th June 2024 - a Great Crested Grebe was looking particularly resplendent on the Granta Park lake recently, although only the one adult has been seen there so far this year. A Swallow swooped in to take a drink, whilst a male Mandarin Duck was 'sleeping with one eye open' on the bank. Nearby, a Grey Wagtail acrobatically collected food, presumably to feed young nearby, and further on a juvenile Pied Wagtail was also seen feeding along the edge of the meadow, whilst a Buzzard flew overhead.
