Coombe Country Park
This is a great place for watching and photographing
birds and other wildlife.
Inside the hide is a sign (below) telling us about
The Fred Fox Memorial Fund
created in loving memory of
Mr Fox by family and friends.
Please take a minute to read.
Every year flowers are left inside the hide.

That's my husband (below) on a very cold morning
doing a little bird watching.
It is a wonderful place to visit at any time of the year.
The views are amazing too.

Looks like a wonderful place to watch the birds and a nice way to honour Fred's memory.
It sounds like Fred led a life well lived. The area looks very appealing, and peaceful.
Oh wow! This would be my kind of place.
Beautiful shots. You may know there's a similar hide at Descanso Gardens. Different birds though, I imagine!
That looks a great place for a hide. Ideal for spending an hour or two watching the bird life.
It does look like a great place to bird watch!
What a great place to watch the birds. I think I'd enjoy sitting there and waiting for a heron to appear.
I have been to hides like this in Africa, but at the moment I can't remember any in the uSA. They probably exist; they are probably just not common. Good ideas, though. And it is good to see the memorial for Mr. Fox, who seems like just an ordinary guy who put in a lot of time for visitors and is now recognized for it.
I always enjoy your shots from the bird hide Lauren, one day I will get back to the one we found at Herdsman Lakes!
