Before all this snow arrived, I went for a walk around a frosty and sunny Wat Tyler Park, where I came across a fox hunting for food. I only managed one shot as it was partly hidden by bushes most the time, and between me and the sun, but I quite like it.
Some shots of a Rabbit back in 2012. Note the mosquitoes in these photos, the park is swarming with them in spring/summer!

As well as Mandarin Ducks, I got my best pics of fallow deer on my last trip to Richmond Park I saw some posturing.. …and then rutting! Lots of fallow bucks, with some more posing. As well as females.
