Last few days perfect for walking whether in the woods or round the bounds. During the day bright blue and white and sunny with a wind which, though cold, has been enlivening rather than seeking to kill. Beautiful light with the suggestion of spring in the birdsong and scents of grass and pine and freshly turned earth.

Most mornings and evenings the wind has dropped, the icy stillness grabs at the breath and the soul. In the mornings larks hover overhead heralding the day; in the evening it`s a demi waxing moon that hangs in the sky and watches over our return to the fireside and supper.

A lot of magic in the air on these kind of days.
