Going out to the chickens has not been too bad today. Everything is still frozen but most of the snow has gone, the little path to the bird feeders has patches of ice to be avoided but otherwise, it's not too cold.
I have given the chooks half a melon with their food today, just in case they were thirsty and couldn't wait for me to change their water . . . . it was soon devoured!!
As I came back into the garden I noticed that the fish pond was a bit frozen over . . .
There are some fish still in there, just about see them as they are at the bottom of the pond. Thank goodness the pumps are still working so that the pond doesn't freeze over completely.
Close up there are weird shapes down this side, one can 'see' almost a fish dived into the water . . . down there on the left, just its tail showing . . . . wonder if it's a tiny mermaid!!
such works of art . . . . beautiful . . . .
