10th February 2021 – Eastville Park, Bristol

To any readers of my blog I apologise that the scope of my blogs is very limited, but such are the necessities of a lockdown. I felt very privileged this morning to have such lovely views of two of my favourite birds: a kingfisher and a grey wagtail. I also enjoyed seeing the gulls (lesser black-backed and black-headed) on the frozen lake, the excitable Canada geese, a crow bashing a nut against a rock and a cute squirrel. I aplologise for a second time that I have included so many photos in my slideshow but hope you enjoy them.

    Think the Wagtail is a Grey rather than Yellow, as it’s near water?

      Senior moment – I never thought it was a yellow (there’s no cows!)

    You never need to apologise for your blogs or photos Martin. It’s always a real pleasure to see them and read your comments
