Chillier autumn days

Brrr it was so much colder this week. We had our first really frosty nights and out came my long winter coat.

I still go up to feed my dino ducks (Egyptian geese) a few times a week and they always seem pleased to see me. Several feed from my hand now and I find a group (gaggle?) of between 7 to 17 birds there at any one time.

This crow got in on the act on Monday and often the Canada geese try to muscle in.

But I am very careful to ensure my special ones all get something to eat

You will notice this one above is ringed and I call her Ringo. I'm pretty sure the smaller ones are all females, they also shout less. There is also a larger male who is also ringed and I call him George..ha ha yes I have the Beatles in mind.

My card today is an autumnal one for sale at Dotty's Teahouse, Carshalton, Surrey.

I used an autumnal backing paper from my stash and some die cut inky leaves and a cup and saucer. There is nothing like sharing a cuppa with a friend is there? 

 The stamped quote is one of my favourite but long discontinued Lili of the Valley quote stamps.

I would like to enter it into the following challenges;

Creative moments 1/3 anything goes

Crafty catz 1/3 anything goes

C.R.A.F.T 1/3 make your own embellishments

Thanks so much for stopping by. 

Have a lovely weekend and keep warm.

Back on Monday,

Bye for  now,
