Visited Battersea park on Sunday, it's very close to the city, just south of the river. No tube stations in the immediate vicinity, but there is a railway station just a 5 minute walk away. It connects directly from Victoria, but it's kinda pricey for a one stop ticket :(
Did not see many critters (a couple told me I had a rat or mouse scurrying at my feet when I was doing my flower macro :( ) - but there was a large assortment of water fowl in the area, and I think I saw a beautiful dusky moorhen that HAD to disappear after I pull out my 70-200 :P
I spent a good amount of time chasing bees today, unfortunately all the bumble bee shots I managed to take were totally useless due to incorrect exposure metering and plain simple missing focus. The end of the day was good though, as I caught a pigeon perched on flowering shrubs. Yay :) 70-200VR + TC14E rules as a walkaround wildlife lens :)
