A very cold and wintery walk around the Serpentine lake in Hyde Park, London was very worthwhile yesterday afternoon. Birds seen included my first Ringed Necked Parakeets and great views of various wildfowl. The highlights however came in the form of a stunning and rather tame Caspian Gull perched up on railings on the south side of the lake, as well as 2 (also very tame) female Bearded Tits feeding close to the path in a small section of reeds close to the Diana memorial fountain.
