Nocturnal visitor

After watching the programmes about nocturnal animals during the week I thought I would show you one of my visitors. The pine martens have been visiting regularly during the Christmas period.I put out a few peanuts on the windowsill for them.They are wearing their thick winter coats although it has not been that cold here yet.
The day seemed to fly by. We spent some of it ordering some santons, painted terracotta figures from the South of France.Mike brought me back Mary,Joseph, Jesus,a hen ,deer and a baker and we wanted a few more to add to the set. They are tiny and all hand painted https://www.santonsmarcelcarbonel.com/en.
