Hi there Northener, I'm up here int' hills near Holmfirth.   ;D

Took this pic of reed buntings just before the big snowfall. We get a family of about 7 or 8 visiting the garden, but they only appear when the snow arrives.

Gosh Di, your garden looks almost as deeply covered in snow as mine!!!  :o Looks good doesn't it but it ain't half cold on the feet when you have to trudge through it early every moring to fed the birds.  ;D

Lovely piccies BTW.  :D
