Brooklands Lake, New Hythe

Off patch to visit Brookland Lake, New Hythe GPs and hopefully connect with the Slavonian Grebe that's been around since last weekend.  I eventually located it, in the middle of the lake amongst the Tufties and Pochards...too distant to get any decent photos, but these can be seen on Alan Woodcock'sPhil Sharp'sGreenie's or Ken Browne's blogs.


A Cetti's Warbler called from the NW corner of the lake and a few Redwings were seen picking through the hawthorns on the riverside of the lake.  Then past the mill that laces the air around the lake with a putrid smell and stands in stark contrast to the tranquillity of the neighbouring lake.
