Advent Calendar

I spent a very satisfying hour yesterday afternoon making this charming advent calendar : all young animals
The extra is another view, using flash. I couldn't decide which I preferred.

Todays Clare

The block behind the fire is put
To sanction customs old desires
And many a faggots bands are cut
For the old farmers Christmas fires
Where loud tongd gladness joins the throng
And winter meets the warmth of may
Feeling by times the heat too strong
And rubs his shins and draws away
