Woke up to this today!
I have never been a great fan of snow but it looks nice out there, the house is warm, there's plenty of food in the cupboard and we have loads of books to read so I have no complaints.
A Great Spotted Woodpecker was desperately trying to get at a few crumbs left in one of the bird feeders so the pristine snow is now pitted with our foot prints as we went out to feed him.
He has been joined by the usual colourful crowd in the tree and a large Magpie strutting around on the floor. Entertainment for us but survival for them.
Don't know how long the snow will last. I still have a few begonias and dahlias in the garden but they are probably dead by now!
