Ten little birds

Went to the local nature park today.  I usually visit in the evening and was therefore shocked at just how busy it was.  The car park was almost full. It actually had a carnival atmosphere with dog walkers, photographers, families, cyclists etc. Covid seemed to be a long way from most people's minds. 
 I spent some time in the hide and found it  relaxing observing a swan family preening each other.   I managed to capture a shots of a number of birds, including a nuthatch.  It was hard to choose a favourite but I think this captured the essence of the reserve today.
