On a beautiful, cold, sunny morning, we took a walk...
A strange name for a pond, you might think?
Here’s the answer...
The scene was like something out of my
‘What to look for in Winter’ Ladybird book.
In contrast, this was taken in the same place
a few summers ago...
Returning to winter...
Peace reigned as we delighted in the beauty.
We continued our walk...and noticed that someone had put
out bird food in various places. I’m guessing a warden,
as this is a country park.
A patch of gorse shone through, rivalling the sun’s rays....
Lichen and ice made a pretty combination on a number of branches...
....as well as moss....my favourite plant right now!
The sight of the Hazel catkins... yet another reminder of what is just
‘around the corner’.
flew by, swiftly, as did a cormorant. On the water, a Moorhen, a Dabchick
and a Coot got on with their day. As did we!
A very pleasant morning...and one to lift one’s spirits, that’s for sure.😁
