Pontefract

On Sunday we went to a Kustom car show at Pontefract race course and we made a detour to walk around the lake there. When looking it up afterwards it seems we missed a nature reserve in the North part of the park!

It was full of the usual birds - Mallard, Coot, Canada Geese, Black-headed Gulls, Tufted Ducks and a Cormorant too.

Unfortunately someone drove a radio controlled boat at the birds and another person had their dog in the lake spooking them so I wasn't able to check them out properly but I don't think I missed any.









Overhead were more BH Gulls and a few Herring too. Magpies and Woodpigeons were picking through the fallen leaves.



It's beginning to look quite autumn like now!



Another place to go back to so we can check out the reserve.
