I had a brief visit to Stanton park this morning before the rain started. Pleased to note at least half a dozen goosanders on the lake, plus a male teal.






Also seen at Stanton, grey heron, black headed gulls, mallards, mute swans, moorhen, blue tit, great tit, robin, dunnock, blackbird, coal tit, long tailed tits,tree creeper and goldcrest.
