There's a Kingfisher regularly on Cholsey Brook now, seen/heard almost daily as it zips along over Chruch Rd bridge and past the school.
The Moorhens still had 2 large (almost fledged) young last weekend, but another bird brought 2 small young over from (presumably) the dried up pond at the school, trying to reach the Brook. The resident Moorhen chased it off, leaving the young stranded in a garden all afternoon. No sign since, although an adult was defending some young (heard) from a juv Grey Heron that was stalking them at Church Rd Bridge on 15th.
A hedgehog was also at the bridge on 15th, and there was a brood of recently-fledged buzzards north of Lollingdon Fm.
