We went on a trip to Rainham Marshes RSPB reserve on a coach trip with the local Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust group. We saw loads of bird including Pintails which was the first time we had ever seen these. Unfortunately we did not get a good picture of them so I have included a picture I found at www.uvm.edu instead. Species list for this trip:
