Luckily there was something to see on my monthly walk at Draycote Water this morning with this Great-crested Grebe captured by Bob Hazell doing its parental taxi service off farborough bank. Also present were a single Common Tern which went straight through, Egyptian Goose with the 140+ Canada Geese, Buzzard, Grey Wagtail, 2 juvenile Herring Gull and single Yellow Wagtail. Despite the sunny weather there were no butterflies so had to rely on the garden this afternoon to produce Common Blue and Painted Lady.
