    A solitary Tufted Duck on the lake just before 8 this morning. I haven't spotted the Little Egrets for a couple of weeks, so they've either moved on or I'm not looking in the right places..

    The Little Egrets have a nest (I think I glimpsed young) on the large island, easily visible from the west bank. There is a Herons nest in the same tree which is easier to spot. Its very near the top, and the Egret's nest is a little lower on the right.

    Why didn't I take my camera with me? I did a quick tour of the lake this morning, and decided not to take my camera. There was a Kingfisher, perched on one of the fishing decks between the cafe and the sailing club. Barely a few yards from the gate. It stayed for quite a while and would have...

    Boggers, Here's one of the hornets nest I took on Friday morning. There wasn't much activity around it, but I was there quite early and it was cold. I haven't seen a Kingy at Ipsley for a coupe of weeks either.

    It's great to see so many with young on the lake. Early this morning there was a juvenile Heron on the eastern edge of the larger island, and the Great Crested Grebes were out feeding their youngsters.
