A Sharp Shooter of a Bird . . . . *

It's a Snipe! Wasn't sure it is was a Woodcock or a Snipe but it is definitely the latter, with puffed out feathers, Every bird had its feathers puffed out today, it's so chilly. Lots of woodcock about though, they've come over from Russia to the balmy north of Scotland! Poor things!

Went into the town today for the first time since the snow. Very icy and hazardous on the side roads, and the pavements, but the main roads weren't too bad. Trying to avoid going in, but had to sort out problems with the bank and wanted to look for some pretty ribbon to put round the tops of jars of jam. Managed to get a few more Christmas pressies too. The panic is starting to surface now that it is December but I'm sure I'll get there!

*It was a crossword clue!
