Snow at Foxglove
Saturday, January 17th 2015
Over the last few days snow has arrived at Foxglove! It has transformed the reserve from the winter blacks, greys and browns to a wonderful white.
Sunshine and shadows across the Hazel Avenue.
Nobody has been pond dipping!
The moorland looked bleak and cold (and felt it!).
Sturdy gates onto the moor became very heavy to open and close with their additional coating of snow.
Water and ice droplets were hanging on the vegetation and glistening in the sunshine.
