The joy at a visible if fleeting sign of #NorthernWinter is real; if always allied to an awareness of what's wrong, and what's happening in #SouthernSummer. But take your joys. I sneaked up before work to Queens Wood, Highgate last week, a wonderful fragment of Oak-Hornbeam woodland, when the snow had fallen; watched a Redwing (Rotdrossel) gobbling ivy berries, too, a sight without which I don't think winter has properlyhappened #climatediary #klimatagebuch

Greetings to you all from a dark deep freeze in Calgary, Canada!

We have a beautiful clear blue sky today!

Our sunrise today is 8:37 am and sunset is 4:41 pm. I am looking forward to more daylight here each day!

Please share your solstice info and photos from around the world!

Where are the hottest and coldest places on earth?
