Fire on Ice
New Years Day was sharp to say the least everything even more frozen, but clear and sunny, the sunsets here are spectacular the colours on our frozen pond adding to the effects. The ever changing colours on New Years Day were just breathtaking starting at about 3:45 and with the last glow disappearing after 5:30pm. It's was just breath taking watching the sun sink and the colour of the sky all around lit up and glowing pink. Nature is so beautiful, the birds as usual were busy on the feeder with the shrubs to the East being a great perching place. Today it was back to work although the icy weather meant that it wasn't as busy a people just weren't travelling. No spectacular sunset this evening with dark clouds moving in from the NW possiblity of snow on the horizon temperature at 3pm 2C and falling rapidly. It's going to be armchair gardening for the forseeable future by the look of it, and the garden site has been a hive of activity yesterday and today.
