fresh snow fall
We are expecting more snow tonight It's 5pm on Sunday 8th Feb 2009 and there is more snow forecast within the next hour.
Well the snow did arrive but less than was expected so I guess it is work tomorrow. It has been many a year since we had such cold weather for so long, these last few years, if it has snowed it has not lasted more than a few hours.
This year (February 2009) everyone over a certain age is comparing it to years like 1966 (which I can't remember) or 1952 (which I can remember).
Even though it is still very cold it has not stopped the birds in the garden starting to look for nesting sites. I watched a couple of blue tits inspecting an old nesting box in a neighbour's garden and thought I ought to get round to putting up the one I have just bought. It has a bird-cam fitted inside, so with any luck I may be able to publish a couple of shots of the occupants later in the year.
All this is leading up to a migration of my own soon.
But between now and then I would just
like to indulge myself a little and bore you with some photographs from the archives of past holidays in
la belle france.
