A few from Lemsford Springs yesterday. Lots of fledglings being fed after the downpours. A juvenile Pied Wagtail, male Mandarin losing his mane, juvenile Jackdaw and Stock Dove. #hertsbirds @HMWTBadger

@CanalRegent @Natures_Voice A special moment when you see a Kingfisher for the first time.

I’ve been watching Little Egrets for many years at Lemsford Springs but have never seen a breeding one there with such buff tail feathers. The lores are a beautiful magenta and the yellow feet have turned orangey-red. @HMWTBadger #hertsbirds

@SJR_Herts Lovely!

@TheodoreUsyr @HMWTBadger A strange question to which the answer is yes.

The vibrant male Mandarin reflects in the clear waters of Lemsford Springs. @HMWTBadger #hertsbirds

@LizKnightej @BBCSpringwatch @Hertsbirds Aw so cute!

@LizKnightej @RSPBRainham Thanks Liz. A pure fluke with that one!

Lovely to see the Bearded Reedlings at RSPB Rainham Marshes on Saturday. It was breezy so a challenge to photograph amongst the swaying reeds. I think the last photo may be a juvenile as the beak is not yellow. @RSPBRainham

@sehtaceo @RSPBRainham Chances are pretty good at Rainham. Just ask the volunteers.
