Around the Southcote Meadows and Kennet Canal, to the SW of Reading, UK.
Feral Parakeet (there was at least four of them); Grey Heron; Wren
Common Jay; Cormorant; Two Gadwalls, I think
Another Gadwall; Coot surfacing and Roe Deer
I’ve neither seen Parakeets (possibly Rose-ringed) or Gadwalls before, at least not to photo in the wild, and on the Gadwalls I’m open to correction.
OK, so a Roe Dee is not a bird, so this pack is wildly off-topic - sorry!

What a productive day of birding! I don’t live in the UK, so I’m surprised by the parakeets and gadwalls:)
They (the parakeets) are feral populations, the winters have gotten so mild that they now have established populations all over Europe, mostly in big cities in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece. They’re invasive and actually cause damage to local populations of bats, woodpeckers and nuthatches through competition for nesting- and sleeping spaces.
