Naked Trees.....

Maisie and I left the house at 6.am this morning. We did a longer walk. There had been a frost. Maisie wore her bright pink coat with its fluffy white collar. It didn’t stop her from chasing rabbits, digging into burrows and noisy play with other dogs. She is a doggy Tomboy. The naked trees in this image are young poplars. Tall and straight with feathery branches in the very early light.
Margaret and Emily returned to Wellington today. We are missing their company. Duncan stayed overnight and prepared a nice lunch for us.
