moon lane

It is hard to reproduce the illusion of the enlargement of the moon as it rises on the horizon. It seemed appropriate to have a buzzard watch over us. The first few lambs have appeared although the lambing season now goes on for many months. Otherwise not much has happened hence lack of photos and blogging.

the first signs of hope

at long last the shoots of early (although by now quite late) daffodils, and of the first snowdrops have started to emerge ... the nights are getting shorter so all that tree worship seems to have worked yet again.

first of the new year

the jays were being especially querulous today, goodness knows what about.

and a Happy New Year

on the road to Malham (where a few of us spent Christmas)

a christmas wish

night life

snow, a moon lit night and light on the church tower make for a magical Christmas scene at the bottom of our paddock.
