12th November 2020 – Dyrham Park NT

We made the most of the lovely sunny day and had a walk in and around the ancient deer park of Dyrham Park in South Gloucestershire. We had never visited the nearby village of Cold Ashton and enjoyed seeing its church and having fleeting views of the Manor House.

There wasn’t a lot of wildlife to see and strangely no sign of the deer. Perhaps they are being kept out of sight to stop visitors from breaking social distancing rules.


Not too sure about this bird – sky lark maybe

The highlights were a pair of buzzards near Marshfield and the trees in the parkland some of which retained some colour to catch the sunlight.
