A sunny morning with a temperature of 5°C as I walked towards the Lake at Lister Park, a Song Thrush high in a tree was vocal as I did so. The Lake had fifteen Herring Gulls and c40 BH Gulls, c50 Canadas, 25 Tufteds and three Goosanders. Others around the Park were Robin, LT Tit and Wren not too many, the reason might have been the Sparrowhawk surveying from high in a tree.
