An early morning call from Brian sees the three of us heading off to the King George V reservoir in Chingford to try to get another year tick.
A Grey Phalarope had just been reported as being seen here, so we had to come as it is only 20 minutes from home.
It has been reported on the east side of the north basin so a bit of a walk. When we reach the causeway we scope the basin and find the Phalarope at the south end of the north basin, which saves us a long walk to the far end.
As we watch the bird it comes closer & closer till it is just below us for really great views.
Such a tiny bird that is fascinating to watch as it bobs about in the waves.
Really nice to catch up with Harry and a few locals.
