Happy Christmas from me and my Feathered Friends I’ve had these birds for years and they get an outing every Christmas – sometimes perching on bare branches in a vase accompanied by papier mache pears, but this year they’ve got the starring roles perching on the Christmas wreath on the front door along with some berries to stave off hunger and some nifty battery operated lights. A few of their legs came of in the process but I’ve managed to wire them in place and they should last through the festivities provided the local fox doesn’t mistake them for his Christmas dinner.

Happy Christmas everyone.

The transitional days from winter to spring and summer to autumn are visually the most inspiring to me. Trying to spot the very first subtle changes that signal the arrival of a new season brings a quiet feeling of rejuvenation and mentally kick-starts my motivation for fresh projects, both indoors and out. Summer, however, is the season when I slow down – or at least try to – to observe and relish the completed projects of seasons past as well as a garden in lush, fresh bloom.
