STANTON PARK


I spent an hour or so at Stanton Pak  today, and managed to get some quite nice photos of some of the regular visitors to the bird table. Birds seen included coal tit,blue tit, great tit, robin, wren, blackbird, dunnock, chaffinch. On the lake were 11  goosanders, black headed gulls, mallards, mute swans, and moorhens.
