Cold mornings feel like winter .... and our winter visitors are still about...

a Redwing...


and a Fieldfare...



with lots of feeding going on....




But the bulrushes are 'fraying'...



and the buds are budding....



and this greenfinch senses the sun is warm enough for a little basking...



while the wrens are shouting that spring is on its way!!

Avon Meadows under water!!  Lots of flood water about today...








The water is lapping under the boardwalk with the main pool water level over the 5m mark...


and the excess running off into the ditch...

A grey wagtail enjoys the watery carpark...



a song thrush searches for breakfast in the long grass...


A pair of swans are eyeing up the main pool...


and following the stormy weather... the willow heron has had to go in for repairs...
