The same two herons featured in a post on Sunday. Now seen during the cold spell, standing in almost the same spots they had been occupying a few days earlier.

Frost spreading in tree-like patterns as it crystallised on an external window during the cold spell at the turn of the month.

Female shoveller on Anglers Pool, Perton, recently. It appeared to be reaching down to the bottom of the pool to eat.

Almost unrecognisable under a covering of frost, turkey tail fungus on the stump of a former bush.

Gadwall drake on the (smaller) Anglers Pool at Perton recently, busily feeding on or near the surface. Another gadwall, possibly its mate, was too far out on the water for me to get a clear view of it

Looking rather furtive, a West Park squirrel excavating a morsel it had previously hidden.
