Great Crested Grebe With Fish

A visit to my local Reservoir in Oxfordshire in August.

 

The water levels at Farmoor were at the lowest that I've ever seen.

 

A Great Crested Grebe fishing on F1 Reservoir by the blue water fill pipe. When the pipe was discharging water into the reservoir the Grebe was catching fish and worm/eel things. When the pipe stopped the Grebe swam off.

 

The blue pipe is drawing water from the filtration ponds on the North side of the Reservoirs.
