Today we took a drive to Letchmore Heath to feed the thriving duck population a few part loaves of bread we had been storing for them. There were about 50 ducks of varying species and all seemd pretty friendly, coming right to our feet and quacking to be fed.

There are a number of Chestnut Trees providing an abundance of winter food for squirrels and we saw a number of them happily playing and gathering nuts.

On the drive back home we saw a few more as well, they were out in force in the sunshine getting sun on their fur for what may be the last time this summer as the leaves have started to turn indicating that we are now heading into Autumn.

We are about to renew our RSPB membership too, roll on winter bird watching…
