Chilly here, but sunny today. It looks like a lovely weekend of sunshine and mostly dry! Car in the garage tomorrow to swop the Summer tyres over to the Winter set, which I have timed just right, now its below 7 degrees! I had to go to Montfield today with a colleague and noted 4 Blackbirds in the walled area of trees, but wasn't aware there was a Waxwing around – I guess this was feeding on berries in the car parking area.
