Well there is plenty of activity down on the pool today, despite it being so cold....

There seem to be two stonechat territories,  - one at the back of the pool and the south meadow....

and one between the pool and the river and across onto the north meadow ....

blue tits are inspecting a nesting box ...

a song thrush is looking for grubs...

and a goldfinch pauses a moment on his endless search for food...

but it is oh so cold on the pool for the little blackheads gulls and moorhen ...
