Photo Opportunities at Little Marlow GP

A walk around most of the lake turned up good views of a couple of species that we tend to take for granted.  Firstly I heard a Treecreeper in full song about half way down the west bank.  I tried to get some photos but it went very high up a tall Willow.  Then another Treecreeper arrived and this did allow me to get a few OK photos.

I then walked to the SW corner of a lake were a few Goldcrests were feeding.  One came quite low and was not concerned by my presence.  I assume the need to continue to feed in the freezing conditions was important.  The light was good for a change and I manged to get the photos below.

On the lake about 50 Black-headed Gulls were standing on the ice.
