MORE TALES OF SNOW

As you can imagine, there isn't much to do in the garden at the moment and my only excursions out there are to re-fill the bird feeders (the birds - and the squirrels - are still VERY active and hungry). Not even any winter trampolining as it is covered by a blanket of snow at least six inches thick. Nothing for it except to worry about which plants are going to make it through (the boldo having already succumbed) and fret whether the bees are still alive. Actually, I have seen signs of life, for when I brush the snow off their hive, the 'killer guard bees' rush out to see me off!
