A square park, with basically just grass and trees (thought there's lots of different trees: big ones, small ones, willows). There are a few small bushes in the centre. Seems to be a perfect park for urban birding: buildings surrounding it on all sides, the bustling Oxford road going right past it, and quite a few people having a walk about. Thought I did not see a lot of birds, I can perfectly imagine flycatchers, during the migration period, flitting around the big old trees that are in the park. I can't see it becoming my proper local patch, but it's close enough to let me just wander around for half an hour's quite birding.

Very quite birdwise, you have to stay silent for a few minutes before you start to notice anything other than magpies and pigeons. 12 species in only 30 minutes, from 2:15 to 2:45.

1 Dunnock (hiding in the small bushes)
1 woodpigeon
1 coal tit
2 blue tits (probably more)
1 Great tit
2 magpies
1 treecreeper (possibly 2)
2 Chaffinch
Pigeons
1 Pied wagtail
1 Blackbird

Black-headed gulls and other gulls going over.

I've also noticed before a few other birds around the place (mistle thrush, sparrowhawk), and slightly further up Oxford road (goldfinches and a jay), so there's probably a few more resident birds about.
