Summer bedding, Connaught Park

There is a small aviary beside the path, to the right of the ‘centre’ flowerbed, which contains a few cockatiels. I overheard a conversation, while walking past a couple, that once all the birds have lived out their natural lives, the aviary will not be replenished. It certainly seemed, to me, that there were fewer birds in the aviary than when I last visited it, at the end of January 2015. Besides the aviary, the park contains public conveniences, which are open on Sundays and an all weather shelter, as well as benches and a small lake that children may use for sailing toy boats on.
