We're stuck in the middle of a 24 hour winter. The snows fell last night, and are slowly thawing today. Still, it makes the garden look pretty, and provides some nice tell-tale signs of fox activity.

I had managed to put some food out for the birds, and a few blue tits and greenfinches were making good use of it. Not a great shot, but it gives an idea of what I could see from the back door.

As for seeing foxes in the snow, no luck tonight but while I was waiting I took a few shots of the thawing snow\/ice as it clung to the beech trees.
