Bathing time...

... Were there bugs on the water line? (Probably). It certainly felt too cold (to me) to be bathing for fun, but the blackbirds were splishy-splashing too. 
We still have much snow (minus 1 temperature) but not near the water. Today brought the glorious sunshine we were supposed to have had yesterday. (Delayed in the post I guess, like lots of things in these challenging times). 
It makes the snow twinkle like diamonds from Heaven, but I like the blue tit and reflection, in the shade.
