A year ago yesterday (4th February 2020) I moved to the Isle of Wight. I can't believe I have now been here a whole year. I didn't expect to still be living here on my own a year on, but on a whole it has been quite the adventure despite all the other 'stuff' going on in the world.
It wasn't the best weather yesterday, but today I celebrated the year anniversary by taking my camera out with me on my walk with the dogs. My camera has been very much left at home of late. I just took my small pocket camera, but I was able to get a few shots of the lovely day it was.
Sunshine, shadows and sea
Cliffs against the blue sky.
Pretty snowdrops
There were so many clumps in the woods, it was so pretty.
Daffodils starting to flower along the road edge.
Back home for lunch on the deck, again just wearing a t shirt!
Some gardening after lunch, clearing out the dead wood etc... lovely to see theis Hebe flowering.
A bee on another flower, collecting pollen.
Primrose
I've moved my bird feeder again, as it is still hardly being used, so it was nice to see a Blue Tit on it yesterday.
Percy on the footstool, he climbs on it, to get on my lap when I am sitting on the chair looking out to sea. He is a funny fellow.
The Snowdrops are so lovely. Mine are barely poking up now.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that you are loving your life in your new home on the Isle of Wight. It looks like a delightful area.
The snowdrops are beautiful. It looks like spring is definitely on its way.
ReplyDeleteHard to believe you have been there for a year already. Seems like yesterday that you were moving :) xx
What a lovely place to live!! to see the sea!!
ReplyDeleteYou live in a nice spot, lots of nature.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, the year certainly flew by. What a difference in the weather we are having temperatures below zero and you are wearing a tshirt. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Beautiful view from the deck. The pictures of the snowdrops are very pretty! We are in a winter mood in NYC. :) However, last year we went to the botanical garden at the end of January and the snowdrops were in a full bloom there too.
ReplyDeleteBirds are so delightful to watch. After moving closer to a big park, I've seen so many that I never knew existed before. I've become more interested in learning their names too. :)
