Brrrrr

It's so cold! When I got up this morning, the sky was the most amazing colour, with a blood red streak all across the horizon. It could have been 'red sky in the morning', although I half-hoped it was the result of a sacrifice to the weather gods, placating them so that they'd let it warm up later in the day.

Anyway, the river at the bottom of the garden has actually frozen now, something that hardly ever happens. So I thought it warranted some pictures. Apologies for slight blurriness on some of them - I refused to take my gloves off to take them!


This is pretty much the view from the study window every morning.



Two shots of the frozen river. I'm not sure how thick it is, but I'm pretty sure a duck could walk on it. Now all I need to do is find a duck and test my theory...

Downstream


and upstream

In the summer the river is at the bottom of the garden, and in the winter the garden is at the bottom of the river?
