Monet sparrow

Best viewed *larger*

Inspired by this by Monet for the title... rather fitting with the church tower behind. This is a male house sparrow waiting patiently for some food, not at all fussed I was taking his picture :)

And...

Winter crown

Appalling weather, constant rain. Plumber was here all day fixing the heating & HOORAY the new boiler is installed & working! Lovely to feel warm & comfortable again! Hope 2014 gets a whole lot better now! (about time!) xxx
