Leasowes Park

After doing some shopping at B&Q the other day we called in at Leasowes Park on Mucklow Hill, something we haven't done for a long time, we had forgotten how lovely the place is. We just went for a short walk without bins but I did have my camera.

There wasn't much about. although we were surprised to see this Moorhen still on the nest, must be a second brood:

Apart from this Buzzard,

there was only the expected birds around, Magpie, Crow and Woodpigeon in the trees and Mallard, Moorhern, Coot, Black-headed Gull, Lesser Black-backed Gull and Mute Swan down on the pond. There were small birds flitting around but without the bins nothing came close enough to identify for certain. A lovely walk none the less.
