This bird was feeding on the ground.

This wood pigeon’s egg had fallen out of a tree, or perhaps it was knocked by whatever ate most of the contents.

The furry-looking catkins of the pussy willow.

A bluetit taking a pause while eating from a peanut feeder.

One of the few fungi which carries on growing even in the cold season. It grows directly from the trunks of deciduous trees, here a horse chestnut.

These frogs and frogspawn were in a corner of the pool in Wightwick Manor garden.

The one below seemed to be trying to have a staring contest with me.

There were a lot of frogs, and lots of spawn.
