What a belter of a cold January day! We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world and literally just a few yards from our door and we are into countryside. So we went for regular walk around the lakes. It is a well worn track for us! It was a slow walk because we kept meeting people for socially distanced chats! Caught a glimpse of a Treecreeper and we had the snoozing Tawny Owl pointed out to us. We wait to see if we have the forecasted snow tomorrow!
