the same light making the woods seem mysterious and entrancing.

a wall of light

the strong sun low on the horizon created this illusion of a wall of light slicing through the woods. Or perhaps it was a spaceship going into warp drive near Luckett.

With some sun the celandines and primroses are flourishing. It is so mild it feels like spring, but celandines are always early to flower and these are no earlier than last year (see link).

master rook

Yesterday morning (Saturday) was a fine, cold morning with ice under foot and fascinating colours in the rocks.
