We can always rely on ivy to provide winter colour, and not just the obvious green

Most of the ice has gone but this lingers on

Long-tailed tit amongst the alder. These little birds are such speedy flitters, it’s a delight to catch this shot. I’ve been trying for years!

Call it as you will, Traveller’s Joy, Old Man’s Beard or Clematis vitabla, it provides most welcome subject for our winter camera

Old Man’s Beard is considered a noxious weed here.

There are several plants by that name. If it’s the same one, I can understand it, for once it’s established it can be quite rampant. However, to buy it from a garden centre/nursery costs over £30. Which to my mind is rather pricey. Apparently not easy to germinate!

What a fabulous and colourful selection. Congrats on getting the tit!
The second one almost looks like an oil patch.

Thank you. Not an oil patch, but ice!
And two days later there was a long-tailed tit in my garden. But it didn’t hang around while I grabbed camera etc. Bo-hoo!
