Not good

I'm a bit fed up. I've just found out that one of the two Great Crested Grebe's that is overwintering on Hatfield Forest lake was found dead frozen in ice.

I know that obviously all birds are suffering at the mo but it is quite sad when it is a star bird on your local patch. Lets hope that a pair continue to breed there (there were two breeding pairs last summer).
