Halloween weekend, I.11.2025.

 Yesterday, (Friday) went down to Reddish Vale Park, not been there for a while, too wet and turned quite cool lately.

Met a friend David the ex-butcher who I'd not seen for a while, so that was nice.

Down by the bend in the river.

Some new benches and plant boxes have been added since my last visit.

Plenty of Gadwalls of the top mill pond.

Couple of pair of Wigeons too

Plenty of squirrels about round the park, come out of nowhere if you have monkey nuts.

Always manage to capture a Heron.

My favourite bench, always nice and clean with a nice floral display 

The swan family are all looking well and healthy.

Parents and 5 youngsters.

Battery run out. so the last two taken with my phone, what a plonker!.

Phone pictures are very good, only trouble is not much zoom.

Autumn colours looking nice now. 

Back on the home front, still got the large family of sparrows.

And whilst I'm on about large families had another Great Grand Daughter born this week!.

 9lbs.12 ozs she's a big one!, mind you most of my family are 6 footers!.

Birdie jigsaw finished this week.
