Great White Egret
So another year’s birding begins and after my biggish year in 2025 which finished on 250 species (my 2nd highest total) this year wasn’t going to be as busy/manic. I started the year at Tring Reservoirs slowly going around the 4 reservoirs year ticking everything I saw. From the hide at Wilstone a Great White Egret was the highlight though 3 Black Swan tried hard to be notable!

Tundra Bean Geese
The real highlight of the day was 5 Tundra Bean Geese in a field viewed from the canal between the reservoirs and Bulbourne. These were part of a National influx and were the first birds around Tring since the 14 birds 20 years previously. The day ended on 64 species.
