This blog is about all forms of wildlife I record around North Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes in particular. My main interests for 2012 will be looking for anything I've not seen before.

Blue-winged Teal at Berry Fen 20/06/2010

Some record shots of this smart bird from Cambs yesterday evening.

These were the best two from over 70 shots, most of it's backside as it's head was under water! Also a moulting drake Garganey on site, over 40 Redshank, nearly filling every fence post. Ringed and Little Ringed Plovers, Barn Owl, a brief flyby male Marsh Harri
er.
Plus a million midgies - where were all the Spotted Flycatchers??


Only mammals recorded on the trip, 1 Grey Squirrel, loads of Rabbits, 1 Hare, 1 probable Fox on the roadside, just it's eyes caught in the
headlights. Still no Badger tick for Nik.
