Common Whitethroat 1 singing overhead then into hedgerow.
Spotted Flycatcher 1 within trees at cemetery corner. Again I was tipped off it would be around, I heard its high-pitched, almost mammal-like, call before eventually connecting for a decent view. I soon moved on not wishing to disturb a potential nester.
European Robin X
Whinchat 1 seen on far hedgerow from reservoir. I left the reservoir's hide for a walk up the hill to the canal & was informed by another couple of birders that the whinchat was on a hedgerow in a field along the canal, in the opposite direction to which I normally walk. I took the path & soon connected with it & had a very nice view of it. It was not disturbed by the heavy machinery nearby which was working on the canal. A life-tick.
Eurasian Blackbird X
Song Thrush 2 , first heard, then seen around cemetery corner.
Western Yellow Wagtail 1 also on a fencepost near to the blue-headed.
Western Yellow Wagtail (Blue-headed) 1 on the same line of hedgerow as the whinchat but much more distant from the canal. However it was still fairly easy to pick up with its distinctive plumage & blue head - a first for me. It kept coming back to a fencepost within the thinned out hedge, right where the other birders said it would be (like the whinchat was too), but it seemed to take one last, longer flight which took it much further away.
Pied Wagtail X
Yellowhammer X - heard.
Common Chaffinch X
European Goldfinch X
House Sparrow 2 , a pair collecting nesting material.

Wilstone Reservoir, Tring, Hertfordshire, 07/08/2008
Weather: Mild, bright but overcast, just after rain. From 11am.
From the wall, scanning the whole reservoir: Mute Swan, Coot, Tufted Duck, Great-Crested Grebe, Mallard, Cormorant, Common Tern, Grey Heron, Moorhen.
More unusually: Ruddy Duck, a couple of males; Pochard, one or two; Teal again a couple on the mud & on the banks in front of the hide.
Further along the wall: Pied Wagtail, juveniles; good numbers of gregarious & chatty Lapwing; Black-Headed Gull, Canada Goose.
In the wall-side hedgerow: Woodpigeon, Wren, Robin, Goldfinch; a yellowhammer singing, but not seen.
Into the small woods: flitting Goldcrest & Great Tit.
Taking up position in the hide: Gadwall, then after a few scans of the whole reservoir I picked out Red-Crested Pochard in eclipse plumage, easily identified by its bright red beak, & one of the birds I had hoped to see on this visit after reading the latest sightings on the website.
As I was about to leave the hide a heavy shower came down so I waited it out, & after it finished it triggered some activity: a Common Sandpiper skimmed the water & perched on a distant bank; then a fellow birder alerted me to a couple of Green Sandpiper which had flown up & out of their previous, hidden position to alight on the edge of the reeds, where they foraged before again moving out of view. A much darker bird than the common, a slightly dumpier, & marginally less active & 'dipping', & also a new species.
No sooner had the 'green sands' moved out of view than I picked up a Kingfisher perched on a fence post, again on the edge of the reeds. It preened for a while allowing me to take some digiscoped shots before it flew off. The first time I've seen one perched & not more usually zipping along & away from view in an instant.
The other birder then alerted me to a Red Kite floating over the car-park; a Crow flew across the reservoir onto a tree & as I scanned the area I again picked out a kingfisher. For a brief instant it was joined by another then one even dove into the water before it sat on a overhanging branch, before again flying out of view. Really good views!
I reluctantly set off for the car park, hoping to pick up a little owl in a dead tree that the other birder also tipped me off about, but to no avail, although I did see Swallow & Kestrel overflying.
Another excellent excursion & mission accomplished for a couple of target species (red-crested pochard & green sandpiper).
33 species, 1 new.

Wilstone Reservoir, Tring, Hertfordshire, 11/05/2008
Weather: Bright & sunny, glorious t-shirt weather. From 8:30am.
A follow-up trip to Wilstone, fingers crossed for hobbies.
In the car-park & same as the last time with blackcap in good voice but not visible this time, although Swift, Pied Wagtail & Goldfinch were seen.
Cresting the embankment & scanning the water revealed Grey Heron, Coot, Common Tern & Great-Crested Grebe.
Continuing along the embankment path a Kestrel over the trees, Canada Goose, Cormorant & Shoveler all flying over the water, Starling & Carrion Crow flying over the nearby trees & fields.
My attention turned back to the reservoir & the terns foraging over the water, & I soon noticed a slightly different bird to the common terns. It was one I had hoped to see after checking the Friends of Tring Reservoirs' website where many sightings of flocks had been reported, but for me here was a lone Black Tern, a new species for me. It was smaller than the common terns & obviously of much darker colour: blacker on its head, fading to grey on the underparts. The website states that it has been a good year for these terns at the reservoir & I watched for a while before moving off along the path, hoping to see it again when I rejoined the reservoir later in the walk.
Further along the path either on the reservoir or in the hedgerow by the side of the embankmant were Gadwall, Robin, Mistle Thrush, Woodpigeon, Chaffinch, Greylag Goose, Tufted Duck.
A Skylark was heard before I picked it out over the fields just before entering into the small woods for Blue Tit & Great Tit. As I continued into the woods I glanced out onto the adjacent fields thinking I had spotted a hare only it was much larger & was in fact a Chinese Water Deer complete with fangs that are its equivalent of antlers. Further into the woods for a Wren which was apparently in exactly the same place as last time, this time with a beak full of moss presumably for its nest.
Into the reservoir hide revealed an additional Mallard, Pochard & Mute Swan, then leaving the hide & continuing through the woods & onto the pasture & hedgerow, picking up Long-Tailed Tit, Chiffchaff, Great-Spotted Woodpecker & Jackdaw.
Further along the path, & just before the ascent to the old canal a very vocal bird caught my attention sounding similar to a blackcap. It took some time to pick out as it flitted about amongst the dense foliage but eventually I identified a Whitethroat, my first for some time. As I watched I also heard the distinctive loudness of Cetti's Warbler but as usual didn't see it, unlike the Treecreeper which alighted on a branch nearby. A few yards further along & another vocal warbler, this time a Sedge Warbler which also took some time to show itself as it flitted between amongst the hedgerow rather than the reedbeds where I was focusing my attention.
Rounding the corner of the field to begin the small climb, a Blackbird flew along the hedgerow & then overhead a Buzzard received some unwanted attention from a crow, then back to the hedgerow where I picked out a surprise pair of Yellowhammer skulking about.
After walking along the dry canal bed & spotting nothing new I turned downhill & into another small wooded area where I finally picked out Blackcap. Then heading to rejoin the embankment path around the reservoir, a bird flew into the nearby field of rape where it became quite difficult to pick out, but nevertheless a clear male Reed Bunting with his partner calling plaintitively from the trees into which a Song Thrush flew.
Back on the reservoir embankment & with the temperature having risen throughout the morning had seemed to enliven the reservoir with plenty of activity from the terns, both common & black (although I could still only see a single bird). By this time however another bird had joined the others because as I scanned the water I picked out a largish, scythe-winged bird which first skimmed low over the water & then up over the trees in the middle of the reservoir. It was joined by another which skimed over the reeds. Here, finally, were the Hobbies I had hoped to see & they didn't disappoint! In certain aspects of their profile they looked like giant swifts, as they dashed about catching insects with ease, a very charismatic bird with slate-grey upperparts, distinctive moustaches & a flash of reddish-orange on the underparts. I watched for a while before reluctantly having to head back to the car, & by this time their numbers had gone up to at least five.
As a nice bonus to watching the hobbies, a Red Kite lazily soared over & a Lesser Black-Backed Gull also flew towards the other reservoirs, to the east of Wilstone.
A good day, & although I would have liked to pick up the cetti's it was a first for the black tern & a definite first (only a previous possible at Titchwell) for hobby.
45 species, 2 new species.

Wilstone Reservoir, Tring, Hertfordshire, 20/04/2008
Weather: Overcast, misty & cold. From 8:40am.
Another trip out to the Tring reservoirs, Wilstone being the best for birding, in anticipation of hopefully seeing good numbers of hobby next month. I thought I'd have a dry run as it were & maybe pick up an early arrival.
In the car-park: Long-Tailed Tit & a very vocal Blackcap, the first of many. A Grey Heron then flew overhead onto the reservoir & I then picked out Goldfinch & Chaffinch in the hedgerow bordering the car-park before finally climbing the reservoir embankment.
On the reservoir itself: Common Tern in surprisingly good numbers, actively foraging & preparing to breed; Tufted Duck, Coot & a couple of Black-Headed Gull, Mallard, Mute Swan & Gadwall. Swallow were also present in good numbers, skimming low over the waters, & as I took a few steps along the track I noticed many were chattering away in the branches of a nearby tree which was maybe a roosting site.
Also as I advanced along the path a Pied Wagtail went up, soon followed by a Meadow Pipit & I noticed the first of many Great-Crested Grebe on the water.
Looking further along a Moorhen scuttled back to the water from the path, & in the adjacent fields & hedgerow, Woodpigeon, Willow Warbler in good song as was a skylark, but unlike the warbler I couldn't pick it out in the mist. Other birds in good voice included Song Thrush & Wren but both were not visible at this point.
Rounding the bend of the path into the small woodland & good view of a Great-Spotted Woodpecker, & a Carrion Crow on the fields, then a Chiffchaff in the tree-tops along with Great Tit, & lower down, Wren & Dunnock.
From the one & only hide, I immediately picked out a larger than average brown-headed duck which revealed itself as a lone & unexpected Pintail, it was accompanied by a few Cormorant & a couple of Greylag Goose. Whilst scanning the water a cuckoo was also clearly heard 'singing' from the fields towards the car-park but there was no chance of seeing it through the mist. I sat for a while observing the water & was struck by the noise the numerous gadwall were making which was accompanied by squawking from the heronry in the middle of the reservoir; I was also able to pick out a few Pochard & a lone Shoveler before leaving the hide.
After the hide the path continues up into some pasture & then along the side of a dried-up canal, before turning back & heading through some small woods back towards the reservoir. Along this stretch I saw a couple Jackdaw, flushed from the hole of a large seemingly dead, tree, Blackbird, Robin, & a Song Thrush which I finally managed to pick out amongst the trees, & in the woods, a Jay.
The final part of the walk is again on the reservoir's embankment, & as I began this last stretch I noticed what looked like a red-breasted bird landing on the reservoir's concrete side & as soon as I raised my binoculars to get a better look I could see the powerfully-built bird had an orange breast & metallic blue upper-parts, a unmistakeable Kingfisher. I watched as it flew fast & direct across the reservoir & into the trees, a great bird to see & my first in many years.
In the agricultural pastures that are overlooked from the reservoir wall, there were good numbers of birds browsing the fields including Canada Goose & a nice pair of resting Stock Dove which were briefly accompanied by a Mistle Thrush.
Rounding the final bend of the embankment towards the car-park were large numbers of hirundines, numbers large enough to almost be described as clouds, of mainly Sand Martins but there were also a few House Martins. With these numbers it's easy to see why the hobbies are frequent visitors here!
As I watched the martins, hoping for a last minute raptor to finish the day, a wagtail flew along the wall & with a quick scan it was easy spot it as a Yellow Wagtail. It landed promptly & began to forage accompanied by a pied wagtail allowing good views of a bird that us new to me in England
The wagtail was a very nice way to finish a surprisingly productive day. One thing about this site is to try & get there early because by the time I'd finished the car-park was full & the area was full of other walkers.
