Goldfinches chattered in the treetops near the Henry Moore sculpture.
A female Chaffinch under a holly tree near the bridge gave the camera a wary stare.
So did a Long-Tailed Tit in the Dell, though actually they don't take much notice of people.
There was a little flock here again, attracted by the mealworms in the feeder.
A Great Spotted Woodpecker called from the greenhouses, and there was a brief view of it climbing a branch.
Ahmet Amerikali managed to get a picture of the elusive Song Thrush in the leaf yard.
He also got a good shot of a Grey Heron flying.
Black-Headed Gulls and a single Common Gull bathed at one side of the Diana fountain, and Herring Gulls drank and bickered at the other.
A Lesser Black-Backed Gull stretched a wing on a post near the bridge.
It has unusual greyish-pink feet instead of the usual pale yellow, and it may be the gull I've seen trying to catch pigeons in this area.
Some of the Great Crested Grebes are already back in breeding plumage.
Another view of the Moorhens in the Italian Garden fountain bustling around among the plants and enjoying a walk balancing on the narrow rail.
You don't usually find the four teenage Mute Swans on the Serpentine together, so it was good to see them in a row at the Lido.
A mixed bunch on the Lido railing: an Egyptian Goose, a Black-Headed Gull and a young Herring Gull.
The names of the hens in the allotment are displayed on the wall of the shelter.
However, their breed is not mentioned as with the previous flock which were sadly killed by a fox. That was interesting, as they were of old-fashioned rare breeds.
A political protest on a child's pushchair at the Vista -- it says 'Freedom is a very pleasant feeling.' Ironically, if they don't put themselves in harm's way by antagonising Vladimir Putin, as Navalny did, the Russians are freer than us now.
It's odd how western media insists in portraying Navalny as the leader of the Russian opposition. He is most certainly not. The leader of the opposition is Pavel Grudinin, the head of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation!
