Clear sky and moon high in the west at 0750, Saturday morning. Moon just past full, waning from the left, the side away from the sun.
First frost for a while, with the extension roof very white and the part of the lawn nearest the house fairly white. The back of the lawn, either in range of the low early morning sun or in the shelter of the trees at the back of the garden, clear.
Still no action on the bird feeder hanging off the garage - which we never got around to taking down this year and which has been at half full for months. Unlike those at Holne which got plenty of visits, if only by rats and mice.
And so far this morning, no bird action at all. Perhaps the cold is keeping them inside their bushes.
