This and that on a Friday

This week the sun has shone, but it's still very chilly in the early mornings when I walk around the garden to take a look.   

There are a few stalks of broccoli that are surviving the frost and ice.

A robin comes to visit and it's happy that there are berries still clinging to the hawthorn tree branches. I didn't do the RSPB Bird Watch Count this year.  I've only seen the robin and a few blue tits despite putting out bird seed and melting the ice in the bird baths.

Sunshine and the pink hyacinth lift the spirits.

I moved the plant to the windowsill.

Mr P's tomato plants are doing well and are at different stages of growth.

Snowdrops and crocuses are flowering - hurray!

We mostly stay indoors and I have a pile of library books to keep me occupied.  I stay in the present moment and try to stay focused on my immediate surroundings.  I shall be taking a break from blogging but I'll be back soon.  I thank you for coming by.  Have a good weekend!
