Good afternoon, The Bucks Bird Club indoor meeting for December will be on the 5th December at St Annes Hall, Wendover starting at 7.30pm. Non-members are very welcome. It's very much a social event, looking at the Bucks Birding scene in 2024. 1/3

Black-necked Grebe found by Adrian Bayliss at College Lake this afternoon spent it's time covering most of the north end of the main lake occasionally moving closer to the NW corner @bucksalert

25/9 15:41 : juv Little Gull : Dorney Lake, Dorney. Flew fairly directly west to east down the Return Lake. I lost it as it mingled with some BHGs at circa 1750 mtr mark. Presume it carried on into Berks.

23/9 14:30 : 2 Black Tern : Little Marlow GP. Active over east side.

Some interesting variability in the juv LBBG at #LMGP. This one is noticeably small and dark with a strikingly pale head, has moulted all/most of its scaps, with 2nd gen feathers also dark. All pics the same bird, but different exposures in early am/late pm. Northern type I guess

Wasn't expecting this Common Scoter to drift past me this morning at #LMGP. We don't often get them here and this is only my 2nd record.

Male Common Scoter at Marlow, thanks Adam #bucksbirdnews
