Lapwing on Mud Island

An afternoon walk around the Mill Lakes with the family started by meeting Steve at the entrance to the Peninsula. He'd just had a Lapwing on the Mud Island and a Little Grebe near the middle of the lake. The Lapwing was still there, being harassed by a Magpie on the southern bank of the island, showing off its yellowish-orange vent . There was no obvious sign of the Little Grebe, but I didn't get chance for a good look. The Gadwall and Teal were still present, and I finished the walk off with a Sparrowhawk over the grass behind the Dipping Ponds heading towards the Reedbed and a male Kestrel hunting over the grass area and farmer's field by the main entrance.
