3pm Swan feed - Martin Mere

Excitement at the arrival of food.





Fed up waiting!!


And then along came the late arrivals -


















Half term visitors

Anya and the boys came for a few days over half term. We had a lovely time swimming, walking, tossing pancakes, football and even managed a visit to Martin Mere to see the swans. Sadly it was all over far too soon but hopefully they will be here again at Easter.

Yet more snow!!

Poppy seems to like the snow - especially the taste of it!!






This was Martin Mere last Saturday, a very cold but bright day, some areas were still frozen and the ducks were skating around.



This heron saw me coming and flew away immediately he saw my camera.




The Whooper swans were flying in for a feed.









This Derby and Joan couple looked as though they were putting the world to rights!










Then the very next day along came some more snow. These were taken from the bedroom window about 7am.
