It's Cold Out There!

We are finally having some really cold and frosty weather that is far more appropriate for the time of year. The last few mornings there have been some hard frosts which look beautiful across the fields. I just wish I had a bit more spare time to get out across the fields!
Some people feel that certain vegetables are better after a hard frost.



All of the garden has been sparkling with ice crystals.


The grass a carpet of white.


It is a time when the animals need more attention. The sheep cope pretty well with the frost but may need extra hay. Most of the horses have hay out in the fields. The frosted grass is not always good for them. Margot is enjoying her extra snack!

    You've captured the beauty of it well, but I'm already wishing for spring even though winter was nearly 2 months behind in showing up here!

    Oh how wonderfully you describe a hard frost . . . although I prefer to just see it in your photos, not out my window. :)

    Glad to see Margot is wrapping up well too. Our frosts were pretty but didn't last long.
