SunriseI had ANOTHER snow day today. I woke to the familiar white world outside the window.
I'd love to show you photos of some of the beautiful birds we get on the bird table but my camera isn't that good at catching them. I do have to chop the nuts to mix in the bird seed for little beaks!The school was closed and so I spent time today trying to keep the birds fed, preparing for my art class tomorrow, and a bit of reading.
Lucy managed about 45 seconds outside this morning, she doesn't like the snow, who can blame her it would be up over her head!
I walked to the shop to get some milk and although you probably don't want to see yet another picture of snow, I had to show you this one. They are trying to sell this land in the valley for housing, I would be so sad to see the trees cut down.
I was just asking if the nuts were for you, as i know that you hate nuts! Love your snow pictures...please, can we have more?! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHope you are keeping warm and safe. The birds in my garden have been so hungry I'm just about out of food as are my neighbours who said the shops are out of supplies too. I'm sure we can improvise for a while with whats in my cupboard.
ReplyDeleteI've been putting boiling hot water to melt the ice on the bird table & the hens hang around underneath hoping to get seed - so they got hot water on themselves !
ReplyDeleteFrankie who looks a bit like Lucy was out in the snow & she's normally so prissy !
Would be awful to loose that land.
Have so enjoyerd our snow today
Hope you are enjoying your snow days.
ReplyDeleteI fed the birds earlier but surprisingly only a Robin ,two Blackbirds and two Pigeons came to eat all day...we usually get loads of birds!
However,there are Bullfinches in the trees at the bottom of the garden...a lovely sight!
;-)
I love the first photograph, it is stunning!
ReplyDeletenooooo they can't chop the trees down -- I'd be kicking up such a fuss ... I hope they don't ... good for you feeding the birds , all I get are seagulls
ReplyDeleteHello there! Glad to have found your blog....it's lovely! That photo of the valley is stunning; hard to believe that beauty could be destroyed by housing. I'm sitting here munching Christmas cake and praying for a 'snow day'. I'm a teacher too, but my school is in a city centre, so we are always one of the last to close. We have had a fair amount of snow and it's freezing hard, so here's hoping.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog, I'll call in again soon. Ros
Oh they can't build on that land! All us bloggy women should come and live in the trees in protest!

Love all of your snow pictures, it's nice to see somebody elses for a change. Hope they don't build on that plot of land, it looks sooo beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLucy doesn't look very happy at all. She will just have to wait it out till the snow clears...
ReplyDeleteIt is always a depressing site to see nature being mistreated, but in this world we live in, money talks, sadly.
Our bird table was rotting at the base so we invested in one of those swish bird feeding stations - I was concerned that the birds wouldn't come to it but I needn't have worried they are all back - especially Mr Robin who has his own special mealworms and robin food. My cats are just like Lucy - I think they hold me personally responsible for all the white stuff cluttering up their garden:)
ReplyDeleteWe didn't get a snow day today, sadly. We were one of a handful of school in the county that stayed open! Such a shame, as I had plans for a day of knitting! Lucy looks like she likes the snow about as much as my Henrycat does!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving all your snowy photos. You inspired me to make a nut and seed fat pot today with the boys to hang in our garden, feeling sorry for the birds but our lovely neighbours all feed them so they should be OK :)

ReplyDeleteOh, you can never have too many snow photos, Lyn, they're lovely. I hope the housing estate doesn't go ahead.
ReplyDeleteShow as much snow as you like, your photo is as always, lovely. Hope Lucy is warm and cozy now.

I love your snowy photos - I've taken loads over the last few days because it looks so wonderful! Sounds as if we're in for more snow this weekend so keep snapping! Both my cats have only put a couple of paws outside this week and then jumped back into the warmth of the kitchen! Stay warm & have a lovely weekend, Rebecca x
