My blog is mostly about wildlife, particularly birds, walking, days out, all growing things and anything else that comes to mind.

Funny old day.. hither and thither - flowers and birds..

Went over to camera shop this morning in search of a new camera strap.. dipped on that one.  So... where to?  So I decided to go to Petworth Park in search of ducklings etc.

Daffodils everywhere... carpets of them looking lovely..




Getting hungry I headed for the house and cafe...

Fire engine anyone?... You'll need to be fairly small to fit though :(

A lovely fruity scone up to the normal very good standard :)


Wandered down to the lake.. loads of children about... scaring most of the wild fowl!!

A family of Egyptian Geese with goslings..




The wind was really strong today,



which made macro photography almost impossible....


Mr Ponders spied a bench in the sunshine.. Today, as a special treat, Billie Bear came out with us..he was rather enjoying himself...





and so over to Warnham LNR... was exceedingly quiet in terms of birds... but did see a pair of Grey Wagtails... this is just one of them having a preen......





and down to earth tomorrow.... normal week.....

Wagtails make good subjects, they are quite approachable. We've had greys nesting in the river wall, but not last year.
