9th October 2025 – Stoke Park Estate, Bristol

We are lucky to have a period of high pressure and the lovely weather seems to be holding up. A few of my favourite photos from my walk around the local park this morning:

Duchess Pond in Stoke Park

The autumn colours are really showing around this moorhen. It’s not about to build a nest is it?

The resident grey heron

Blue tit

Female stonechat

Female stonechat – there was no sight of a male

The jay seems to always be around too although I only had a very brief view of it

Grey heron

Fly past grey heron seems to be showing off
