Fernworthy

The thermometer said -9oC and it might have been. Frosty leaves, lichens, twigs, bracken and seedheads. I’ve tried and failed to get my reflection in a robin’s eye before. This time the light was just right and there I am. I’ve not seen Fernworthy frozen over before – lots of crystals and strange scoring. Rabbits at various speeds, reflections, my favourite stumps… …and then the excitement of slithering home in the car!
