Garden Snow


Brrrr. Our coldest night this year (-11)
prompted me to put up a few images from the garden this week.


Looking out from the back door.


Hmmmm, I wonder where where our neighbour's cat has has been?

  
 Bird footprints on the garden table



We've left our marks
 
and this Wood Mouse sprang out,
bounced back off the snow,
and zoomed away behind the pot.

    1. Until recently Andrew, and especially compared to the last few winters, we had got off jolly lightly. Hope things are easier up in Cheshire.

  2. Jerry, you should move to the hot region of Banstead. We were basking in minus 8.8!!

  5. Well this does look cold. ! Here in Central Florida we actually got down to the 30's last night. Now that's cold for us. It never lasts long .. a couple of nights and the days are always sunny. But all we need is one or two cold nights like that and the tropical plants turn brown.
    Most will come back to life.. but some have to be replaced..
    Needles to say I don't like it. BJ

    1. Ooooh hope your lovely plants come through ok! The cold's fine for the garden here at the moment, what we dread is heavy frosts late Spring when the apple blossom's out - then we get hardly any fruit.
