It's Great at Branton

The first Great Crested Grebe arrived back today, and hopefully it will be joined by more to enable them to successfully breed. They have attempted over the past three years but for various reasons without success. Previously eggs have been laid but for some reason didn't hatch, nests have been washed out on atleast three occassions while I once had to persuade a photographer not to attempt getting photos of them on their nest by approaching through the reedbed they were nesting in. Lets hope for a Great nesting season.
