Wrens, robins and moths!

I was up at the crack of dawn this morning (well, 8.30ish) and thought I'd check out Montpelier Park as part of my exercise walk. There was no sign of any Willow Warblers but plenty of Blackbirds and a singing Wren which showed well.

In the garden a Robin was carrying food so it obviously has young in the nest.
