Bird paradise at Cannon Hill Park, Edgbaston, Birmingham
You have to get here early if you want to secure a perch. The rail isn't actually intended to provide a comfort zone for our avian friends but to prevent pedalos on the Boating Lake proceeding any further.
My late mother used to take me to Cannon Hill Park as a youngster in the early 50s. I remember being fascinated by the fact that the bed of the River Rea through the park was lined with bricks.
