And suddenly...

It all looked pretty & those little humming birds are amazing,I never thought they would have to cope with snow. I always thought that they only lived in warm places.
Lovely photos as always & I’m glad you have got all your tender plants in now.

gorgeous little birds . nice pictures and especiallythe picture with that lake is lovely .

I hope your snow clears soon, it's horrible isn't it. The birds must be tough to withstand the cold.

I'm not putting a Christmas tree but I may put up a few decorations if I can find them amongst all the stuff in the attic :)

No Klahanie, I never decorate outside; it wasn't something people did when I was growing up, and I don't suppose I've ever got used to the idea.

Lovely pictures, Klahanie, you live in a magical setting. We've noticed a large increase in the number of our own avian visitors last week as the weather has got colder. The seem to remember from year to year who has been feeding them. Beautiful visitors!

Very pretty Klahanie, but rather chilly! Your feathered visitors know they can count on you for meals though! I haven't done any decorating or even bought any cards this year - just haven't had the energy. But I will make sure we have the usual vase of white chrysanthemums and poinsettias on the hearth, with a candle on each side. These are lit for the festival of nine lessons and carols on the radio on Christmas Eve afternoon. My pudding is ready, my cake is overcooked but will get eaten anyway! The sprouts in the garden are open like small roses this year so we will have bought ones instead. As for the rest, who knows....

Poor little Hummingbirds. I notice on cold night bird huddle around our security lights, bit annoying really because the lights keep going on when they move!

I am not a great of snow, pretty for a day or so, but no more than that! Our temps. are set to drop next week, with a fierce Northerly wind making it feel bitterly cold. If only I could hibernate. I love to see your Hummingbirds ... :o)

Lovely photos Klahanie … glad the power came back on quickly …brrrr! I have also brought tender plants in, and put fleece over cuttings/seedlings in the greenhouse hoping it won’t dip below zero.

Sorry to see the snow Klahanie, but what a treat for us to see your fabulous hummingbirds! Little weeny dots waiting for their feeds. You must be thrilled to be able to look after them.like you do, can I have one please..haha! Pleased that your power came on and you're not still waiting. Saying that, my logs were supposed to arrive Saturday, then definitely today, but no, so annoying!

It looks so lovely especially when looking out at it when sat near a warm fire.
I especially like the photo of the lake!
Those birds are amazing and I bet you get a lot of pleasure watching them feed.

Klahanie, that is so true! I have a jigsaw puzzle 'on the go' and often don my headphones, listen to some music while OH is watching a World Cup Football match. Suits us both ... :o))

It definitely changes quickly for you! Looks so very Christmassy though, Klahanie. Your hummingbirds are a joy to see...beautiful visitors to your garden.
