I leant over to pick up a pot and found myself face to face with a nuthatch, clinging to a tiny bay tree.

@helenclayton Wow! How did you manage to get so close without 'em flying away?

@helenclayton What a picture!

@fkamiah17 I’ve no idea! They stayed like it for several minutes then flew off shouting.

@helenclayton

Did you get the lovely sunshine over there? I didn't even mind running today.

@fkamiah17 it has been gorgeous! It clouded up a bit this afternoon but just so lovely to get sunshine.

@helenclayton Right? I hadn't been as affected by the SADs as some other people, but it did hit me like a brick how much I'd missed sunshine when I was walking to town this morning. Crocuses and daffs are budding in the garden too 🥳

Ngl - I did fuck off back indoors the minute it clouded over

@fkamiah17 yes this winter has been tough. I think this was a very brief sunny interlude but so welcome.
