Hardly the best views of the Bittern at Barnes today... but was pleased to spot it from the Wildside Hide when it finally emerged around 3pm. My 100th bird for the year, and my 200th species for London. Shame my camera battery died an hour earlier! #londonbirds

Never mind, as my lengthy trek to Balham and back today via Regent’s Park left me three species up on yesterday, with Little Owl, Water Rail and Fudge Duck - finally! - in the 2025 bag #londonbirds

Bitingly cold at King George V reservoir in Chingford today... so cold, in fact, that even the Great Northern and Black-Throated Divers were huddling together for warmth. Also: 3 Black-Necked Grebes, Buzzard, 2 Red Kite, Sparrowhawk, Goldeneye and 2 Goosander #londonbirds
