What a difference a week makes!

Ilkley had a couple of snow days over the last week. Thursday 1st March saw blizzard conditions sweeping the country but thankfully by the afternoon things had eased.

an Ilkley Gardener - March 2018 Snow Scene

The following Thursday, the snow returned for a few hours at least, my garden saw visitors such as a Thrush, it's speckled breast stark against the remains of the snow,  a Jay in the mist, a couple of Red Kites overhead and finally, a skittish Wren visiting my bird table.
