The day the snow fell

8th - 12th December 2017

Can get email notification for when I add a new post, button at top right just under my banner.

Think the last time the snow came down properly was in 2012 and here it was again, always seems to snow everywhere in the country but not in Kidderminster, so off I went for a few walks over the fields at Spennells armed with lots of clothing and my trusty bridge camera.

These photos only cover a small fraction of the Spennells area.


The Grey Lady's Cloisters

Snowing quite heavily here

Walking in someone else's footsteps

My favourite tree



Looking cold by the Pool, I live about a minute's walk from here.












Off down to Stonechat's Lane, sun was a touch warmer now.

Stonechat's Lane


Usually a large flock of birds here but quiet today


Looks pretty when the sun is out

Got the light just right for this one and it managed 2nd place in IC5 which is an online group in the Postal Photographic Club with this one, for anyone interested here is the link.

Just love this tree.............









Not going in the reserve today!

Bit of editing done on this one

One of the small pools

The car park at the lower reserve


Entrance to the lower nature reserve


Stream still flowing but didn't see the kingy.



The next few are from a walk around the Spennells Valley Road and Worcester Road areas.

Standing on the new road bridge



No cars!










Pity it's not this quiet on a weekday









Almost home.

And not forgetting Hurcott
