Today we saw the welcome return of this non-standard Blackbird to our back garden
He's quite tame, though not quite tame enough to feed from the hand.

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
Not much snow here..
This is what I found when I went for my early run:
A bit slippy in parts though
It's rapidly melting and by daybreak I expect it'll be all gone...

We had a light dusting which is pretty much gone already. This was 3am

Pissipitating down with rain here today, we had a short bit of snow yesterday evening but it was soon diluted by the rain.

It's not stuck anywhere other than what landed on the cars, so had to brush it off a few to get the raw materials for a bit of sculpting. Few big flakes just now but stopped again for the moment

Love the pet, and isn't it great when kids manage to model Dad with such a great likeness!!

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
The last time we had any 'decent' snow here must have been 10-15 years ago.
Yesterday started out at 0 deg rising to 13 by teatime.
Dreaded condensation on all cold surfaces in Barn & outbuildings

Tried to photo the snow from my bedroom window st 10.30 last night, not very successfully, turned to rain after midnight and now just a slushy mess.

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
One of our Junior parkrun volunteers building a snowman this morning 
This is how it looked when I did the course check...
The kids loved it without exception even though they all ended up soaked and covered in mud

It was not slippery or icy anywhere but biblically wet and slushy!

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
Trying out my new camera today 
She's discovered chocolate
A little bit practice on plants..
Playing with Depth of Field...
I'm still on a bit of a learning curve and today was very much trying to put my learning to date into practice and building on that learning. I still have a way to go...
I'm really getting back into the subject. I used to be very deeply into it in the late 70s/early 80s, even to doing my own processing...
286 photos today and some real crackers of little 'un up to her antics

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
Thanks for returning my SD card Jim. It actually has 125 pictures on it including some from the South Coast Saunter and this one from another trip I did with SWMBO
