A flock of Grey Partridge walking around the house.

 A quick break from their favourite game of batting at each other around the door.

 Sheet of ice under the little bit of fresh snow this morning (freezing rain overnight).

 Guess who begs to have her paw held!

 Most mornings I wait for Molly.

 Miss Maggie joined us on our way - above freezing temperature today.

 Third frosty, foggy start to the day - great temperatures.

 From today's walk. The town on the horizon is about 15km (9 miles) away.

Molly stopping to smell the anniversary flowers.

 

 A bit warmer temperatures recently, and some of the chickens don't mind coming outside (the youngest ones seem the most tolerant - all the red ones in the photo).

 Miss Maggie puts up with GingerSnap!'s antics when she is waiting for food.

 He made it safe and sound.

 Dropped our oldest son off at the airport so he could fly to the other side of the world for three weeks.

 Most days my only photo is of the sunrise.

 The chicken coop.

 She found it (this is a morning ritual for us on our way to open up the chickens).

 Sunrise.

This morning, on the way to open up the chicken coop with Molly.

 A new weaving project on the loom - basket weave utility cloths.
