A few bits and bobs from camera catch up

 



This weather takes grey to a whole new level ! Distant crossbills in the greyness.




Kestrel in the sun !

Ringtail going through the starlings



Terrifying the starlings !




Stonechats enjoying the sun





The last of the carrots from our garden......they were delicious !



Catkins.....spring is just around the corner


I make the wreaths for all my families graves every year with greenery collected from the local forest. Love making them and this year I made them for a few neighbors aswell. The holly rips my hands to shreds !

Christmas dinner - delicious as always !


and Boxing Day dinner.....yummy xx


Simon and our son, Tom, tucking in !

Goosanders

 







Quite a few goosanders on the river now

A few birds from the forest feeders

 



Someone had put masses of food out but the birds were not complaining !




There was a small burst of collared earthstars, there had been lots but they had gone over. Didn't know they still bloomed this late, will have to keep a look out in future.


Coal tits and great tits in the pouring rain
