18th January 2024 being sub-zero we had expected a winter wonderland but the air was too dry. Yet in a few sheltered spots we did find some glistening foliage…
And in one sheltered spot we found this…
We had hoped for hazel trees heavily decked with their golden tassels. We found a few…
Is that all? No. There was this…
We found some interesting tree trunks…
In the churchyard…
And in the woods
We found wind-dried plants gilded by the sun…
We found colour… in tiny spots
And at the last, a tenacious crimson leaf of the bramble briar…
Hope you enjoyed. Time for a coffee and warm-up now. Next week we’re down on the beach… in very high winds!















Oh these are lovely photos.

Although temporary, a coat of morning frost is one of nature’s beauties. Thanks for catching it. 🙂

There wasn’t as much as we’d hoped for, the air too dry. It was just in isolated places

Love frosted vegetation. And the light is beautiful as well as the spots of colour found on this chilly day. Lovely.

Despite the cold, which wasn’t so bad once out of the wind, and the thought of imminent snow, it was a most enjoyable walk

Wind is such a buzz-killer (unless you are in a sailboat 😉 )
