A Study of a Nuthatch or Another Visit to Haden Hill

Well this time I had a full charged camera, but despite the glorious sunshine, there wasn't much about, we thought the birds might be a bit more active, it was very cold though and lots of dogs about. We do love dogs but not when we are out doing a bit of birding. The constant barking and attention from uncontrolled dogs does get on our nerves.

So nothing out of the ordinary, some Black-headed Gulls were enjoying the afternoon sun at the Lower Pool:

as was this Coal Tit:

But while sitting on a bench enjoying a coffee and the sunshine ourselves, Tina noticed as shower of moss and lichen coming down from a nearby tree, it was a Nuthatch after his lunch. It hung around for quite a while giving me a few photo opportunities, it was quite high up and often in the shade of the tree, but I'm not too unhappy with the result!
