A grey and white cat looking right at you snuggled very cutely in a mustard armchair
Our little destroyer putting on his innocent charm, after zooming into a forbidden room. Don’t like having a “forbidden” room at all, but see initial description of said puss.

A leaded glass faery star covered in snow hangs in a frozen garden
Wishing you a blessed Imbolc! ✨
Always a tricky one for me, as I cherish the winter and never hope for warmer days!
Five classes I took in University:
Microbiology
Head & Neck Anatomy
Forensics
Radiology
Anesthesia
My husband turned me on to you with the dishwasher episode and you have been a regular in our household ever since. Thanks for your rant, it was pitch perfect and much needed. So. Much. Respect.

To my dismay, starlings have beaten the woodpeckers to the suet cages. This one was wiped out in under an hour!
Starlings...looking like they're wearing pinstriped suits, we nickname them The Mafia when they patrol the garden in large flocks. No wonder I haven't seen my woodpeckers or bluejays
Fabulous jumper!

Corner area of a deck, with various clay pots and a small shrub. A bird feeder hangs from a metal pole and everything is covered deeply in snow
New suet cages have been up for three days and are still untouched!
... have the cats been talking to the birds?! See cat bed post ⬇️
Giant snow and ice figures on Japan's Mount Zao, very much resembling Norse gods (the locals call them monsters - juhyo ) Tiny humans on skis for scale
Truly, the Norse gods still walk the earth!
Japan's Mount Zao. These snow and ice structures are called juhyo. What a thrill it must be to stand amongst them!

Haha, we've got some great boxes thru the years, that's for sure! 📦

A plush cream coloured oversized cat bed with a toy blue shark swimming in the shaggy depths
Got the cats a couple of these plush beds for their winter naps. Naturally, they remain untouched

A glorious Coopers Hawk marches across a wooden deck in the snow. He has a copper and cream speckled breast and belly, with dark copper wings and fierce orange eyes
A Cooper's hawk stands on top of his prey, which was a dove, now torn to bits. His eyes glow with predatory orange flames!
Meanwhile, the Cooper's hawk finds his own meals

A red-bellied woodpecker perches on a feeder. His crown is neon red and his wings are black and white speckles. He is tiny and glorious!
A downy woodpecker feeding from his suet cage in winter. All black and white, with markings similar to a badger, and small speckling on his wing tips.
Thank you Canada, for the Arctic blast! 🇨🇦 ❄️
Birdseed has been stocked up, and new suet cages for my fav woodpeckers are hanging, ready to keep everyone fed!

A Stone house in Cumbria, at the end of a windy road with dry stone walls in the foreground, and fells in the background. There is a light dusting of snow and all is frozen and still.

That book was my bible for many years!
