Observation details
Moulting bird present on Wood Green Reservoir until 07:40 at least - a great find by Bob Watts in the half light first thing, and still present when I managed to get there. Black starting to come through quite strongly on cheeks especially, also some chestnut on flanks and beginnings of golden 'ear tufts' also apparent. Note in photos the slightest suggestion of warmer hues on the neck, and also the bill shape to confirm this species and not Black-necked Grebe.
