Feeding the birds in frozen Crystal Palace Park

Crystal Palace Park is only a few minutes' walk from our flat and I visit it every time I am in London. There is a large lake in the park which supports lots of water fowl and seagulls. Yesterday we took along a bag of wild bird seed and old bread. We weren't the only ones. These birds must be among the best fed in London.



They know the routine: humans appear clutching a bag - the birds head straight for the humans.



Do not expect the food to last long.



Much of the lake however was frozen yesterday.
