A ...........

 ............. bit more colour today - both in the garden and in my head.

Rarely do we get Great Spotted Woodpeckers in the garden but, today, there he was .......... hanging onto the forgotten feeder that has old, horrible looking peanuts in it.  He was pecking away and didn't seem to mind at all.   (In the extras another capture).
  Cheered me up no end.

I was so "cheered" that I summoned up the energy (and desire) to put the Christmas tree up!   This will seem very late to some but I have never put it up more than a week before Christmas Day (we take it down on 6th January) but even this was a bit late for me.
