Slavonian Grebe

A small pool at a watersports centre near Grimley in Worcestershire has been home to a Slavonian Grebe for the past week.

Grimley

Less than thirty miles from home, close views and photos likely, it was an opportunity not to be missed.

On arrival he had just caught a fish and returned to the centre of the pool to digest it. After around twenty minutes he was heading back to the shallows for more...

Feeding close to the banks gave great views of it catching and eating the fish...

Fantastic to see a Slav so close, only the second one I've seen.
