Sunday 4 January

Below freezing this morning

 We were soon spotted by the regulars and some extra visitors

 They are soon feeding

Just a few photos as we walked the path

 

Harry Heron was still fishing in the river

 

We have been looking for the Shoveler for days, others have seen her, she was on the Small Lodge this morning being picked on by the Mallards, she is so fast that she avoids most of them.

Take Care

Sunday 28 December

Sun was trying again but it was cold in the shade

Lots of the trees have Ivy cover, some of the rangers have been trying to control it by cutting the base stems, it works but there is a lot to go at.

I love it when the sun breaks through the trees

The old raft - I remember it being built

I suppose it's a shadow selfie

We were up among the trees - I use to sit here to watch the world go by not many people noticed me

The overflow bridge

Canada Goose - the feed is proving popular

We attract quite a crowd when we appear

The leaves of Hogweed - Heracleum sphondylium, they will probably survive the frost and may make a stunted effort, it's very tough.

Take Care

Sunday 5 October
