A short trip to Queen Mother Reservoir, Horton, Berks with Paul and Brendan. We were in search of a Red-necked Grebe. A juvenile Great-crested Grebe did it's best to fool us. But we weren't having any of it (well maybe just a bit). Anyway, after spending some time looking at a juvenile Great-crested Grebe from the boat club car park, we made our way around the perimeter of the reservoir where after a ten minute walk, we connected with the Red-necked Grebe as it associated with a flock of Tufted Duck. We enjoyed good scope views for a few minutes before it flew to the far side of the reservoir.
