Late broods of Little Grebes.

Ingbirchworth Reservoir - two broods of 2+3 Little Grebes (brood of two also noted on 20th August) are to my knowledge the first young to have hatched here this year. Also 72 Mallards, 14 Tufted Ducks, 2 Great Crested Grebes and 14 Coots (a fall in numbers of each species since Monday).
Winscar Reservoir - 97 Mallards plus a fresh brood of 6 ducklings and 1 Moorhen.
