Moorhen striding gingerly over the frozen boating lake in West Park.

Even a partial freezing of the West Park boating lake is causing a problem for these birds.

The squirrels of West Park are so used to being fed that it is moot whether they are wild.

These are such spectacular mushrooms, so here are another couple of them.

This fungus looks like a congealed foam on rotting wood, including, as here, on tree stumps.

This closer view also shows tiny puffballs nearby.

This flock were systematically going over the patch of ground which was very soft after recent rainfall.
