Baby, It's Cold Outside

Cold, although not as cold as some. Windy, although not as bad as others. Frosty, enough for woolen socks. Nippy, an excuse for wrapping up with layers. Bare trees, excellent for hiding in the hide and watching birds.

Although next time I'm bringing a flask.

The Best time for Birdwatching...

It's freezing, oh my goodness, it really is. However, with no leaves on the trees and hungry tummies tempted to the free food in front of the hides, it is an excellent time for bird watching out there in the forest. It is also a good time for me to think about zoom lenses.... really need something better than this 18-55mm VR lens... Picnik can only do so much...

We have all the books, the binoculars, the interest and the view... apart from thermal underwear and a flask of coffee, what more could a girl want...
