Hunting grounds for both the bird and the photographer ...
I don't know if the bird got it's catch but I certainly did.
The grounds of the park were originally part of an estate owned by Ernest Royden which comprised the park, Hill Bark house and Thurstaston Common. Upon his death the estate passed to Hoylake council and was opened to the public for recreation. The park features a visitor centre, walled garden, miniature railway, woodland walks and a lake. A surprising find !!!!
This golden-crowned sparrow was one of several that would venture out of the grass onto the edge of the path for a bite, then go back in if perceived danger was detected. Spotted at Jackson Bottom wetlands.
This really is a splendid place, meticulously maintained. We celebrated my wife's birthday at their outdoor restaurant, then spent an hour or more walking the grounds.
www.sanysidroranch.com/ has all the details. We stayed here on our honeymoon. Rates have risen *significantly* since then.

These birds are on the northern edge of their abnormal breeding grounds, but abnormal or not, they are here and this juvenile has shown up in the past few days, no doubt having been forced to go out on its own of late. Last night, two of these birds were calling quite prolifically around 10 to 11 PM. They are 'night herons' and feed mostly at night. They have big eyes to accomodate night vision and as they primarily eat crustaceans, i.e. crabs, their bills are short and stout, compared to fishing herons, as this bill is for crushing shells. This is three years running now we've had juveniles appearing around this time in this very same location. So they must like it here. This bird was out early and lurking in the shadows, quite shy.

A walk around the grounds around University of Canterbury club (Ilam). Some of the flowers are now past their prime but still a relaxing scene.
Evagelistria Monastery, the largest on Skiathos, is surrounded by beautiful grounds. It also served as a safe haven from invaders, hence the heavily fortified entrance gate.

St Edmundsbury Cathedral is the cathedral for the Church of England's Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. It is the seat of the Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich and is in Bury St Edmunds. A church has stood on the site of the cathedral since at least 1065, when St Denis's Church was built within the precincts of Bury St Edmunds Abbey. In the early 12th century the Abbot, Anselm had wanted to make a pilgrimage along the Way of St James to Santiago de Compostela. He was unsuccessful and instead rebuilt St Denis's and dedicated the new church to Saint James, which served as the parish church for the north side of Bury St Edmunds. This church was largely rebuilt, starting in 1503, with more alterations in the 18th and 19th centuries. When the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich was created in 1914, St James Church was made the cathedral. In 1959 Benjamin Britten wrote the Fanfare for St Edmundsbury for a "Pageant of Magna Carta" held in the cathedral grounds. From 1960 onwards, there was renewed building work designed to transform the parish church into a cathedral building, with the rebuilding of the chancel and the creation of transepts and side chapels. The cathedral architect from 1943 to 1988 was Stephen Dykes Bower and he left £2 million for the completion of the cathedral. In the cathedral grounds a new choir school and visitor's centre were built which were opened in 1990. A Gothic revival tower was built between 2000 and 2005. The font was designed in 1870 by George Gilbert Scott, constructed on a medieval shaft, with a cover by F. E. Howard of Oxford. The decoration was added in 1960.
In addition to guided tours of the cathedral itself, visitors can view changing exhibits of art in the Edmund Gallery, and an exhibit of historic and religious regalia and artefacts in the Cathedral Treasures display. The painting "The Martyrdom of St Edmund" by Brian Whelan hangs in the Lady Chapel.
Friston Place was built by the early-16th-century on land previously granted by charter from Edward I to William Boyd Etchingham, and subsequently owned by the Lords de la Warr and the Potman family.Around 1500, a Thomas Selwyn acquired the land by marriage to Margery Potman and probably enlarged an existing 14th-century building into the timber-framed Wealden hall-house.
Friston Place is situated in a valley, a ‘deep dell' (Lower), of the South Downs, sheltered on all sides by Friston Forest and with wooded hills to the north. The site, which covers some 15 hectares, comprises the house and ornamental gardens. It lies some 7 kilometres south of the A22 Eastbourne to London road, 400 metres west of the village of Friston. The site is bounded on the east side by Jevington Road (the Friston to Polegate road) and to the north, south and west by Friston Forest.
UP YPR60B departs for Cragin after finishing its work at the Tribune and Blommer. The U-Haul facility on the right has been vacated for redevelopment around the future site of Bally's Casino. The Tribune is expected to vacate the Freedom Center by July meaning that rail shipments will end sometime before that.
