Winter wonderland!


Good morning and I hope you are all managing to keep warm and safe.

We had a lie in this morning as we won't be going far.   When I opened the bedroom curtains I was surprised to see icicles hanging from the thatch outside.  So I popped up to the top bedroom (the attic) to take this photo of the garden.  There's my little cabin with snow on the roof.

Hubby went straight up to turn up my heater and  fill the feeders where there were lots of birds waiting for their breakfast!

 A few hours crafting and a couple of football matches is my plan for the day.  Have a good weekend everyone.

Very picturesque Barb and like you have been giving the birdies extra feed. And our planned day sounds much the same, craft and footie.

Great photo! We had blizzard like conditions yesterday that knocked out our power until later in the evening, and it was quite pretty but melting nicely now. Hurry up spring!

Aye, we used to get icicles like that when I was a child! You don't see them often these days. Would be great to use them as ice cubes to drop into a bottle of pop! Hope you're warm and toasty x

Very impressive photo! I'm happy you have been able to feed birds, they need so much feed to survive when it's so cold!
