Where leaves have vanished
berries remain, nourishment
for feathered migrants.

A beautiful image. Do you get many robins hanging about all winter?

  Thanks. The robins migrate. The trees were full of them, so they must have just been getting ready.

this is lovely, V.J. The berries are delightful by themselves, but as I saw the full photo, I noticed the bird in the background. Well done!

it’s been a good year for nuts and berries here in the UK – I just hope that doesn’t mean a severe winter is on its way as our heating system is currently kaput!
