The wrens were back in the garden (both of them) and one was brave enough to come up to the heated bird batch on the deck.
In other news, another food highlight was a gorgeous, onctueuse tarte aux citron for last night’s dinner to help ease the goose down. we didn’t get pictures of the goose because we were too eager to start eating it but the tarte required a more leisurely moment.
Very cold outside – log fire going great guns. Huge snow storm forecast for tomorrow so we plan to stay in and eat and drink and read e-books. Not a bad life.

I can just imagine the lovely flavour of the tarte au citron. Excellent photos of the wrens and starling. We had about 6 long tailed tits round the bird table the other day. I was too late with the camera and only managed to get one of them sitting in the hedge after the others had left. It also took me a while to identify them as I had never seen them before. Lovely colours.
