Hazel Catkins

Texted all the family then spoke on the phone to a couple of them as they got organised with their big family Xmas meals & inbetween walks. Sent each a different Ai Xmas wishes pic.

After lunch went for a walk as far as the mahonia and back. Bumped in to Fiona and daughter Amy who were also out for some fresh air so briefly chatted.

It was a bit colder out than I thought it was going to be.

Hazel catkins, alder cones & last of the mahonia flowers.

Stood and listened to goldfinches chirping up in one of the trees.

Also added an Ai pic as I was trying to get one to send to family but they are quite difficult with the commands & don’t always work out. As you can see from the dragon looking like it’s eaten too many Brussels sprouts, ha ha!

Ai definitely has a way to go yet before me & it can get close enough to what I was imagining.

Merry Christmas, hope you are having a good peaceful day with family or by yourself chilling out okay.

I am having a lovely bit of salmon for my Christmas meal this evening.
