They have been warning more snow was on the way for ages, and yesterday it came true. The bird bath was covered and once the snow was scraped off the top the water beneath was solid. The bare stems of the fig tree behind are usually hidden by it’s summer foliage when I paint this corner of the garden.

Did you chip the ice out of the birdbath? The poor little birds don’t like skating I think.. Strange to think we in Melbourne Australia had 41 degrees centigrade yesterday. Just 22 degrees today. Your painting is lovely, I miss the snow in England.

Yes, I did, although it took a long time as it was so thick. It’s a bit icy today but rain is forecast so I expect it will all get washed away!
