This group of magpies were socialising together despite the hard weather just before Christmas.
Is this a maple?
The vivid colour of the leaves of this tree mark it out as non-native.
The tree was still brightening up its corner of West Park despite the frost and snow at the end of November.
Black-headed gulls on a snowy roof
This line of gulls was on the ridge of a snowy roof by the Staffs and Worcs canal at Castlecroft recently.
Birds on a seed feeder
Video of sparrows, blue tits and a robin all using a seed feeder.
Putting some food out regularly helps many garden birds survive hard spells like the present one.
West Park bandstand in the snow
Pictures taken at the end of last November,the second one a few days after the first when more snow had fallen.
They are such wintry pictures that they seemed right for today.
Happy new year!
