Stanton park

Another sunny day so took a walk at Stanton park. The first birds I saw were a goldcrest and tree creeper, then on the lake were a male teal, mallards and mute swans. No goosanders today. I made my way round to a bird feeding station with some benches near it, where I joined a couple of  others to take some close ups of garden birds. Saw nuthatches, blue tits, great tits, coal tits, chaffinches and robin.
