13th March

Regent’s Park

Another quiet day, I say quiet the parks resident species are either singing, drumming or setting up territories.

Great crested Grebe: a second pair were displaying on the lake this morning.

Little Grebe: a pair were starting to build a nest by an island on the main lake.

Blackcap: a female was feeding on privet berries in area 10.

Chaffinch: 45 were by the running track.

Once such a nervous visiting duck, some are now very approachable. However in the next week or so they will have left the park.
