| Frost on the Parterre this morning my favorite photo for today |
The garden looked this morning as though somebody had shaken icing sugar over it, with a glissening coating of white. I wasn't surprised after listening to the forcast and of course the birds have been moving closer for the last few days, collecting the oats that horses drop under their bowls. The Robins attention extends to the moment the feed bin lid is raised,small feathered muggers arriving to collect their dues, it is easier to put them a hand full out on the forecourt, than dodge their flying bodies.
I thougth I might take a look for that special frosty phot but alas they are pretty ordinary but the Spud accompanied around the garden flitting in and out of the cameras range and generally getting in the way - mostly, he is the stray tail retreating out of shot but he did sit trasfixed when a gas gun went off from neighbouring farm - small white ears pricked, so I turned my attention to him instead! anyway below, so soon after my last garden walk is my impressions from the morning taht icing sugar fell from the sky!

Aah, that will be called Spudiosity then!
ReplyDeleteWe have more of the iced bun effect up here! And breaking the ice on the water troughs is not the best job but it's thawing this morning. There are spring bulb leaves by the thousand well up too.
Your garden looks beautiful in all conditions. I bet Ollie's upside down on the sofa...resting.

Thank you MrsGH - Great name for him "Spudiosity"!! but he should be called Spook because his flying form terrifies the horses if they suddenly catch a glimse of him! Spot on with ollie - he has declared a cat state of emergency and will not be moving for the near future! Tough conditions in the fields at the moment - hope that cold front moves soon! Take Care Christinexx
