I spent a sunny hour at Wimbledon Park...
I got fairly close to a great crested grebe, and was pleased to see these very little mallardlings keeping close to their mother. There was quite a bit of conflict ("for a change") with swans squabbling over food, nonconsensual mallard action, and a face-off between a swan and a dog (with an idiotic owner).
