Brrrrrrr.....they all look VERY cccccold! Lovely frosty pics Denise, I especially like the last one ....and the poor duck too. Still it looks like the sun was coming out to see it off. Dull and damp here :o((

I love foliage with the frost on them.Do you think the duck is rehearsing for the new series of "Dancing on ice?" ;o)))
We have no frost here in yorkshire,but very damp,dark and foggy.M62 has been atrocious today,with severe tailbacks all the way to Manchester,bacause of the weather conditions.Some stuck in their cars for 2 hours or more,but we are the highest motorway in the country,so often happens.......

The sun is out Lily but not raising the temp at all. Bloomer that duck is 32 years old and shy he turned away from my camera.

That looks a cold morning the other morning i was out with kettle of hot water to thaw the bird bath as it was rock hard ice.

That was quite a severe frost you had, Denise! The plants do look pretty - but oh dear - we know it's winter now, don't we!
