It was cold, wet and windy this morning as I left for my full patch walk, a walk that was never completed, as after just two hours I realised there was little to be found in the ever darkening conditions :-( It's still raining now as I write this at 16:20hrs!
I did visit the lakes though, where the COOT pair were feeding, only two CANADA GEESE were with them, plus a MOORHEN and three MALLARDS, a bonus bird in the form of a CORMORANT sat in one of the bankside trees.
Looking around the Tree Nursery and Greenhouse grounds I found just a MEADOW PIPIT of note, but a
LESSER BLACK BACKED GULL (
55) that flew over was a new species for the month, so I supposed the visit wasn't a total waste :-)
The only photo's for today are more of the Long Tailed Tit and Great Spotted Woodpecker from yesterday..............roll on spring............

Lovely shots of the woodpecker and long tailed tit. Long tailed tits are such photogenic little birds
Hi Warren,
Your photos are wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Warren :-) Gorgeous photos again both here and on the previous post. They're all lovely but the LTT looking straight at the camera on the previous post was a real cracker!
We had heavy snow here yesterday pm onwards, just a little more today.
That last pic could be a character out of Star Wars :-) Great pics. Well done for even attempting a walk yesterday.
