Another Walk in Gosford Estate

As it was another nice day yesterday and knowing that the daffodils would be in full bloom, we went for another walk round the ponds in Gosford Estate.  Before that though, we popped into Redhouse Market Garden for some supplies.  As I had the camera with me, I took a couple of photos of the ruins

We then headed off to the estate and it was just so peaceful, although full of birdsong and geese fighting!!  The daffodils were just glorious and there were more birds than on our last visit.  We saw geese, ducks, swans and moorhens but, the highlight was seeing a heron and a woodpecker.  I could have spent hours just wandering round and round the pond taking photos!!  Here are a few that I did take

He took off unexpectedly and almost got out of shot!!

Still hunting!

If you look very closely, there's a woodpecker hiding in the branches!!
