Crisp and even

Not deep though… No drifting either – just a thin white layer on the roads and pavements, and other smooth surfaces. On the fields, where there’s a crop emerging, the snow is barely visible, but it’s there. There’s a sizeable flock of lapwings, perhaps 20-30, a very pleasing sight (and sound) in the field on the old opencast site, and over Willey there are several buzzards and three red kites. Beneath a clear blue sky (there are a few distant clouds) and in still air, it’s good to be out with the camera, walking from home via Darley (and the Honeypot!), Willey and Deancorner. The car hasn’t moved for days!
