Hunting grounds for both the bird and the photographer ...
I don't know if the bird got it's catch but I certainly did.
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.

This Thorn tree is said to have sprouted from Joseph of Aramathia's staff when he drove it into the ground here. The thorn tree is said to flower on Christmas Day. I don't know whether it really does as the abbey grounds are closed then, but it does flower over the Christmas period.

In the grounds of Lincoln Castle, Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England.
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.
