This is the first photo which I remember taking with my brand new camera and is my favourite photo taken in Kelsey Park. I was walking in the Park with my daughter on a gloomy mid-February day in 2011 when she pointed to a holly bush. The Goldcrest was sitting in the open and a shaft of sunlight lit up its crest. I have never been so close to one since that occasion.
