Waterbirds at the Weston Turville Reservoir


 Yesterday the swans were looking after their four cygnets close to the edge of the reservoir at Weston Turville. Then later resting on the bank.


Further away, moorhens were swimming with their new chicks. 


I spent ages waiting for the two cormorants to surface, but they spent nearly all their time under water.

Finally, I only had my mobile phone on Sunday when I found these graylag geese  on the bank with four new goslings. They had disappeared yesterday.



This is what they really look like.

Wednesday 4th June: the graylag geese are back. And the hungry goslings.
