Nuthatch in Clumber Park

Spent yesterday capturing wildlife in Clumber Park, near Worksop.  Clumber is a beautiful expanse of parkland, heath and woods covering more than 3,800 acres.

Clumber Park was once the country estate of the Dukes of Newcastle. Although the house was demolished in 1938, there are glimpses of its grand past to explore - from the Gothic-style chapel, often referred to as a 'cathedral in miniature', you can follow in the footsteps of dukes through the peaceful pleasure ground to the Walled Kitchen Garden, where you can experience sights, scents and a taste of the past.

Today Clumber offers freedom to discover a ducal park and provides a haven for wildlife within an idyllic setting.

On cold days like this I find capturing images like this is easy as the birds are really friendly and great for close up images like this.
