Moorland Reservoirs
This weeks photo is of Watergrove reservoir which is typical of the dozens of reservoirs that I have filmed at over the last fifty years. In the early years you would never find Great Crested Grebes breeding at the reservoir but all that has changed. They are just as happy now to anchor their nest to a floating Willow as they would be breeding in a Cheshire reed-bed.So always check the Willows on a moorland reservoir and you may find the stunning Great Crested Grebe. www.facebook.com/gordonyateswildlife
