Two Avocet enjoying the sunshine:
A Redshank making the most of what looks like a rather muddy patch of water:
A Grey Heron was enjoying the amenities of the Flamingo pool.
(I wonder what the Black-headed Gull's thinking.)
... and, as for the Flamigo themselves:
I met this charming Barnacle Goose:
A Smew was strutting his stuff:
A ♀ Hooded Merganser was getting around quite a bit. I never did spot the ♂ although I am assured that he's there somewhere.
A Rook was having a paddle on the off-chance of a bite to eat.
... and two American Wood Duck were posing for the crowds.
On my way out a Black-headed Gull obliged with some classic bird-on-a-fence close-ups.
It seems that I'd picked one of the few sun-spots in the south-west that day.
The one that got away? A delightful, low-level display by a passing Buzzard. I fluffed the camera settings!
