The change from the really warm weather last week to the really cold but dry weather this week is a bit of a shock. Mother Nature seems to cope better. At the moment all is quiet apart from the 2 ravens who are on sentry duty . Hopping to and fro on the roof top .
Frosted red tulips greeted the morning. But even though they drooped a bit they still are looking good. The resident robin took an early morning stroll around the garden his territory then decides to take a drink out of the water butt. The cat sat on the fence watching and knowing that the robin knew that she was there.
A drive through the countryside at night was so quiet apart from traffic there was not any movement at all even no wind. Then in the morning the wind had decided to come back with a vengeance and fine rain.
A dusty pink hue covered the grey clouds when the sun began to set. A bird song was muffled by the oncoming traffic so didn’t find out what bird was singing. Then the evening crept in very quickly
After two really warm days it is now turned chilly but hazy sunshine. A lonely daffodil waves in the wind i the back garden , the honeysuckle leaves are growing fast. Going to have a good show of honeysuckle this year. Ans April is near !
