It was officially 0.2 degrees Celsius when I took these shots at 9:45 this morning. These little guys and gals have been coming to the garden for a few weeks now, and they've finally settled down enough to let me within 10 metres. Today, they looked more than a little cold.
Most of you know me as the C.M. Simpson that writes - well, some of you know me as the C.M. Simpson that writes - and some of you have never heard of me at all.For those of you who don't care about my writing, but do like seeing what I'm doing with pictures, this blog will feature photographs of birds, insects, arachnids, flowers, as well as locations I find myself visiting and book covers I design. Oh, and there will be art - of a kind.

Just the one.
When Liralee buys an orb from the Shawl Lady’s stall,
she opens a path to another world, for the orb is not just a pretty glass ball
that impresses her friends; it’s a symbol of power that produces magic for
enchantments. And it’s wanted by two warring kingdoms and a sorcerer with plans of
conquest. When strangers try to take the orb, and her friends gather to aid
her, Liralee begins an adventure that could end in disaster or victory. The
choice is hers.
