The Jay on Buck Hill waited for service in the rowan tree.
A flock of Long-Tailed Tits paused in a bush.
The bird feeder in the Rose Garden was doing brisk business, visited by Great Tits, Blue Tits and Coal Tits. Other birds lurked underneath to pick up spillage, like the Chaffinch in yesterday's blog post.

... and a Blue Tit.
The Grey Herons on the upper nest on the island resented the arrival of a third heron in their tree.

The pigeon-killing Lesser Black-Backed Gull claimed another victim.
The pair of Lesser Black-Backed Gulls at the Lido were making that upward jerk of the head accompanied by a quiet cry that is exchanged between mates.
A young Herring Gull amused itself by rolling a conker around.
The Black Swan was in her usual place at the Vista.
A pair of Great Crested Grebes fished together.
A Moorhen swam over fallen leaves at Peter Pan.
