Not sure if these three gadwall are related to those reported by Pete but it was good to see them on the Lee navigation.
We were two short on our August bird survey (some feeble excuse about getting married!) so Janice and I were on our own on East Marsh. So we felt very privileged when a kingfisher did a fly-by under Green Bridge, stopped, perched on a nearby branch then dived and caught a fish.
We only had our compact cameras so the images are not brilliant. Janice's photo sets the scene, my blurry cropped photo shows where the kingfisher is in case you can't see it!
Some passing cyclists were suitably impressed - the orange of the kingfisher's breast really shone out.
I've also added a photo of a fishing heron.

P.S. Thanks for emailing the photo, Janice.
