Birds at Impington Lake

These images of an adult Great Crested Grebe feeding its young show what a challenging task it is catch and despatch a Signal Crayfish!   I don't know what happened to the crayfish, but during its demise, there were bits of flesh coming off it which were devoured by the fledged grebes.

It was fun to watch a Green Finch feeding off the blossom of either Hawthorn or May.

A couple of days I had seen a large flock of Long Tailed Tits.   Adults were feeding young, but when I was there with a camera there were few to be seen.   A moral there!
