I got told pretty much the same on Saturday for parking there. Mark the Blithfield rep’s been very clear and supportive that we can park at P2. Hopefully this will be sorted out in the next few days 🤞
Wonderful shot and they are amazing in their finery. The Blackadder reference is spot on 😂
Super shot and what a bird!
Gorgeous image!
Love Treecreepers and this is a fab image to show off their wonderful camouflage
