Hi! Neil, it sounds like we're already for next year and Spring
Today was one of the best days since November came in, lots of Sunshine not much breeze, still cold but great for a long walk in the country
We decided to visit Pennington Flash, we were disappointed when we reached the Hides, usually the birds are given Bird seed and other various feed, like Nuts etc but there was nothing there at all, so as you can imagine,
there was very few Birds to photograph.
I managed a Thrush, and a Moor Hen.! Has we walked round through the trees we came across a family of Swans in their own private pond

One Tree had Berries on it and a few birds were enjoying themselves there, I took some shots of these and some Ducks way out in the distance, a Cormorant was sat on a post in the lake and it was only when I got home I saw what the post said
One of the Birds in the tree had a black cap, I've looked in my book and thought it may be a Black Cap but yet the beak seems different so I could be wrong.
It was a good day out and felt good to get out and stretch our legs
