Flowers on one of the West Park rhododendrons a few days ago.

Bullrushes on the frozen pond at Northycote Farm.

This post gives views of the pond itself as it appeared that day.

At work on the hillock with the clock tower in East Park last week – presumably part of the park’s on-going regeneration.

Moss growing on the top of a stone wall, with a raindrop seemingly on every fruiting body stalk.

Looking towards the wooded ridge which forms the highest section of Springvale Park (also known as Ettingshall Park)

From a gap in the trees on the ridge, the Black Country stretches out in the distance.

A young swan in a stretch of open water on the largest pool at Perton on Thursday. It seemed to be spending most of its time with its head at the bottom.
