Bingham's Pond and Latest Sightings

I called in at Bingham's Pond today (22 March 2014) in the hope of picking up a Chiffchaff or even a Sand Martin but no luck. However, there were 2 Grey Herons showing very well; a third made a brave attempt at landing but was chased off by one of the other 2 herons!

Close-ups of both birds follow:


 
Notice the different markings around the eye.
