Hi aeshna5 it was taken at Fleet Ponds in Hampshire, a nice reserve thats well worth a look for anyone in reach,one of the entrances is directly in from the train station car park, so easily accessible for drivers and non drivers alike.

Cheers Za- I saw your location + know that Nuthatch is fairly common in some of the London parks.

Haven't been to Fleet myself but the London Natural HistorySociety has run botany + entomology trips there. Also know it's a popular place to see Bitterns coming to roost in the winter.
