This was a morning visit to the site with Bourne End U3A. Most of the photos were taken from the new hide. There were three Great White Egrets at least spread around the lake plus several Little Egrets. The Red-crested Pochards were a surprise as was a flock of 150-200 Golden Plover that flew overheard at one point.

| An interesting size comparison above and below between Great White and Little Egret. |
 |
| With a Ruffe (or Pope) catch. It caught three in about five minutes! |
 |
| Kingfisher - taken through trees along the path along the SW bank. |
 |
| The same or another Kingfisher sat on the bank for some time but flushed by a runner. |
 |
| Red-crested Pochard - A pair swam out from Draycot Bank. Not a common bird here. |
 |
| Green Sandpiper - taken from the hide. |
 |
| Buzzard - A rather dark individual |
 |
| Teal - Probably over a hundred around the lake. |
