Eastville Park

It was great to have an evening walk around Eastville Park – our first walk together to the park from home since Wendy broke her leg.

It was quite astonishing to see how much everything had grown. There were places where we couldn’t get anywhere near to the river and the River Frome was quite dark in places with the trees laden with leaves. Difficult to see many birds though, although the bird song was quite a delight but sometimes a din with the crows at full blast.

What a delight too to see a Kingfisher and a Grey Wagtail (sadly no photo though). I nearly didn’t take my camera out of the bag until we saw a wonderful damselfly.

The ducklings on the lake didn’t seem too perturbed by predators (not a gull in sight). Good to see Swifts too.
