Tehidy Wildlife Country Park attracts many species of wildlife and visitors alike, I go nowhere near it during any school holiday periods but when the madding crowds of tourists have all gone home it is always worth a visit, Any wildlife that has not bailed out during the busy tourist time slots has learnt to tolerate having people around them that bring food offerings and will not flee from the occasional local photographer as the image below demonstrates very well
The resident squirrels are a delight and so photogenic to work with
One of three Little Grebes present today puts on a log rolling display
A Cob Mute Swan was busy demonstrating his superiority around the big pond
This Moorhen seemed to show an interest in my camera as apposed to screaming off across the pond in a mad panic
For my first time I watched this crow with its head underwater successfully fishing for water snails
Not to be ignored this female Kingfisher showed and fished at several locations during my visit and I watched in surprise as a pair of Mallards mated in the water of the main pond !!
For something a little different check out Tehidy Wildlife Country Park - Part two also published today
