Admittedly, down might be an overstatement. At this time of year it shines across
But welcome, non the less
Sunrise is becoming earlier
The end of light slightly later
Things are moving
Waking
Glowing
Rising
Waiting
And beneath the surface things are stirring
Today not only was daylight today twelve and a half minutes longer than at the Solstice but, maybe more importantly, the sun rose one minute earlier than at that time:
The Blue Tits certainly got excited, prospecting…
…inspecting…
…testing the view…
…and then actually camping out for the night:
We got excited too. The sun was shining through last year’s remains
melting the overnight ice
and illuminating new life
