Day 19 of my #SolsticeCountdown and 2 sleeps to the #WinterSolstice I spotted this while walking in a nearby village in December 2020. We’d had various lockdowns and someone had made a lovely little seaside themed adventure trail for a child. The worst often brings out the best #winter #December

My best thing in life was acquiring jobs which mean I don’t have to get up in the dark. I am so thankful every winter. #FlexibleWorking

Interesting thoughts in a podcast about when is ‘mid-winter’. It’s 21 December for me, because it’s all about light, not weather.

Day 15 of my #SolsticeCountdown and 6 sleeps to the #WinterSolstice I took this photo of our neighbours’ dog one December day in 2010. He and his owners moved to pastures new and we lost touch. I have fond memories of ‘Brun’ because he was just so darned laid back and friendly. A Bearded Collie whose coat refused to grow long. #snow #dog #winter #BeardedCollie

Day 11 of my #SolsticeCountdown and 10 sleeps to the #WinterSolstice A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush? No! Let them fly! The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) or ‘spuggie’. On the UK red list would you believe 🤷🏻♀️

Day 10 of my #SolsticeCountdown and 11 sleeps to the #WinterSolstice We haven’t got to this stage yet (pic is hoar frost on Hartside Pass) but it’s quite nippy here - a longish run of freezing or below and more to come 🥶 In other news I have discovered that there is a #TelegraphPoleAppreciationSociety !

Day 9 of my #SolsticeCountdown and 13 sleeps to the #WinterSolstice Why the long faces? I know, but who can resist 🤷🏻♀️ This is from a few years ago - currently we only have a very sparse covering of the white stuff #horses #snow #winter (Forgot to say in the alt text that the horses are wearing quilted blankets to keep them warm)
