More snow for Queensbury

Apples on sticks in the garden well appreciated

1st year Blackbird

No Waxwings yet

More snow tonight

Still no gritters Dave!

Slipped up with this photo, the car on the road hit his brake and slowed right down when
he saw the flash, I was stood by a speed camera ! Oops, he,s going to be watching the post for the next 2 weeks.

A grey day below freezing with a stiff SE>4 wafting the snow about. Snowed again from mid afternoon but nothing serious, not by Queensbury standards anyway.
The numbers of passerines had moved on from around the park at midday making it a quiet lunchtime apart from the Blackbird on the apples in the front garden spending most of the day there. Hoping to tempt Waxwings but nothing as yet.
