Ward End Park.






Quick sixty minute early morning trip to Ward End Park on other business where it certainly more colourful and warmer than my last visit.

Birds seen were Blue Tit, Great Tit, Chaffinch, Blackcap (male and female), Robin, Starling, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Song Thrush, Blackbird, Collared Dove, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Woodpigeon, Feral Pigeon, Grey Heron, Moorhen, Coot, Mallard and Canada Goose.


The male Blackcap seen was feeding the female a grub on a branch in a tree. As is as usual of late I was accompanied around by a singing Song Thrush.

On the nest were Coot (5), and Canada Goose (2), but unfortunately no young yet. Sadly on one of the islands there was also a dead Canada Goose.
