We begin with two guest photos by Steve McCormick of the Bayside Garden, probably taken on February 4.
Stunning!

I stayed in all day watching Gardeners’ World on youtube, a treasure trove of old episodes from 1991, when Geoff Hamilton was the amiable host. Allan took a walkabout when he got the mail.
A small snowperson at Thandi’s house:
Remnants of a snow angel:
A new garden on Spruce Street! Deer stroll throughout our town so the boxes are probably to keep them out.
His walkabout continued in our garden:

….And an audience.
I wondered if the snow would melt enough for us to install our pond. The liner was scheduled to arrive on Thursday. With more cold weather predicted, we might have a frustrating wait. Meanwhile, I was perfectly happy immersing myself in British gardens.
Such a lovely stroll. Thank you!

So, not all hummingbirds come to Umunhum for winter.

I think it’s the Anna’s hummingbird that regularly overwinters here.

Thanks! I am so not a birder. I love them but have never studied up on IDs.
