Lister Park

Sunday 24th November a.m.
A visit to Lister Park this morning with dull sky & a temperature of 5°C on our arrival.
There were good numbers of the usual birds including BH Gull,Canadas Mallards &
Tufted Ducks but the highlight was two female Goosanders on the water.We just had
a quick walk round the lake as it began to drizzle, we noticed a new sign telling people
to stop feeding the birds.The reason was to stop the attraction of Rats, the penalty for
littering was £75 but this did not stop some people we saw who continued to feed the
birds.
