Munich Day 4 - Wednesday

Today we went further afield to Schloss Nyphenburg - quite an impressive building and acres of parkland/gardens. This involved getting a train and tram... which was relatively easy and a pleasant, if short journey.

The day hadn't intended to be a 'birdy' one but we did have some good 'spots' - a family of Pochards being the first one







Several Bar-headed geese










13 Goosanders




Badenburg (in the grounds) being the bathing hall and first heatd tiled pool... surrounded by a viewing gallery!























And luckily having wondered what a couple of people were pointing at up in the tree, we discovered a juvenile Tawny Owl... woo hoo :D



Magdalenenklause










 Pagodenburg


























Amalienburg






















By now we needed a drink - and a red squirrel was eatng the hazelnuts growing on a nearby tree!



Thoroughly enjoyed the day and an excellent lunch in the Cafe.

And off out to eat in the evening:













 Still left with more to see, we decided we would return the next, and last, day.....
