Petworth Park - autumn colour on a grey day.

Had a very domestic (boring!!!) morning.. it also rained!!..
But did manage to get out for a walk late morning so off to Petworth.. I had to park in the overflow car park so approached the lake in house in a different direction from normal.

Pity the light was so bad but nonetheless..



"Hmm" said Mr Ponders & Fido, "don't think we fancy a swim today".. but it's a good view..

Only a few birds about.. Mallards, Tufties, Gulls, Moorhens, one solitary Greylag and a few coots


The cloud was lifting a little..




a couple of Fallow Bucks... only deer I saw that were (relatively) close...








Messrs Ponders & Fido on standby duty... just in case ;)













No cuppa or scone today.. timing was wrong and, given its half-term, there was a bit of a queue ..

It was.. mirror flat - not a hint of a breeze... but plenty of warning signs about aglae being bad for animal's and human's health!!
