Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour."

Late on parade, but hoping you have been enjoying Christmas. What a lovely photo that is. No snow here, but the occasional hailstones by way of variety.

The seed feeders have about 25 birds coming to each of them - more sparrows on one (who are foraging underneath for chucked-out "boring" seed) and the other is a mixture of Blue and Great Tits, Chaffinches and some Dunnocks. Lovely to watch.

Bovey Belle - Thanks so much :) Glad you liked the photo - it was taken a few years ago though at a local Nature Reserve - Ladywalk which we sometimes visit. We went on my birthday and it was like a Winter Wonderland covered in hoar frost :)

Glad to hear your feeders are so busy :) Ours are getting busier now the weather is colder. We had a grey heron by the pond yesterday which made my Christmas Day :)
