The birds love the waterfall on our pond as it is the only certain water around when it freezes, unless they take a trip to the Monnow. Road outside is covered again though it was salted earlier by the council, who also salted the front steps and pavement of the bungalows. Never done it before, much appreciated by us oldies. |

I saw something on tv the other day about having lots of nesting boxes as not only do the birds nest in them, hopefully, but use them as shelter in bad weather. |

Hi Jude, yes it is me. Yes we have lots of snow here, in fact T took our car down the drive intending to bring it back up and thus clear the drive but he couldn't get it round the bend at the top so had to leave it at the bottom, it is very steep. The car is now parked in the pub car park 5 minutes down the road.. Been feeding the birds here, bought some ground nuts yesterday and put them out just now, we have blackbirds robins, bluetits,dunnocks all feeding together. |

I've been topping up my nut feeders all morning and I ground a load of nuts up (as I do anyway) for the ground feeding/small birds...Had some chips leftover from last nights tea, so they went into the food processer and put those out too... |

Hiya Jude...I have to say it looks quite magical out there. Am sitting at my kitchen window, snow is falling and everything is covered in snow. Took dog to the park this morning and it was like fairyland! We may as well enjoy it as soon it will be all gritted and melting....BC XX |
