ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy, hope you have a good time over the holidays and all the best for 2020. Diane
DeleteHi Diane - lovely photos and selection thereof ... I particularly liked the Bank Vole, while the Little Owl looks like its eyeing you wistfully for a cuddle or maybe mouse equivalent! The Tinkerbird is one I haven't noted, or come across before - delightful little thing. Have a happy Christmas - perhaps you're back here ... in the wet of England ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteHi Hilary, no we are in France, our very first Christmas here. FIL has gone into a home for a month while my SIL goes home to Ozz for Christmas. She will return to care for him next year. N and I cannot cope, he does not know who we are anymore. All the very best Diane
DeleteA superb collection of images from your year, Diane. I wonder if you can guess which one is my favourite?!
ReplyDeleteMy very best wishes to you and Nigel for Christmas and 2020. I hope your year will be filled with wonderful wildlife. Richard
LOL, yes, without any doubt I can guess your favourite. Thanks Richard I hope your 2020 will also be filled with lots of wildlife and many Owls. Keep well and healthy, Diane
DeleteIt's hard to equate France with snow even though I know you get winter. Lovely photo choices from the past year. I am partial to seeing Mary and Micheal's smiling faces, and the elephants.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I received your postcard today.
Happy Holidays to you both with big hugs!
Glad the post card arrived, I suspect the time all the cards took that they went by carrier pigeon!! Easy to equate France with snow for me, but I was always surprised to see snow on occasions in Johannesburg!
DeleteWish we were there to give you a hug in person but the thought is there. Have a good Xmas and a very healthey 2020. Diane
A lovely series of images Diane. Merry Christmas and A Very Happy New Year :)
