A warm but not overly sunny day out on the reserve and Russ Sherriff was fortunate enough to get some more superb shots of the Bearded Tits as they played on their climbing frame.  This has got to be the best year ever for the species at Rainham and hopefully we may get an obliging flock during the winter now as well!

From what I have heard today the Kingfishers have been quite active and Russ also found our first Gadwall brood of the year from the Northern Trail.  She only had two ducklings but still pleasing to see.

Hopefully there will be a few more in the weeks to come.
