Out in the natural world wide web

Off sick today.  Not doing very well this year - bit of a sicky start.  Felt totally wiped and stayed in bed for a while, then moved to the sofa and stayed there all day - eventually getting dressed mid-afternoon.  I had no energy for anything, including photos, which made this shot rather handy as it just presented itself to me - had my phone on charge next to me, glanced down at it and noticed the tree outside reflected in the screen.  I've posted a similar shot before, but this one's much more wintry.

The title for this is from one of my favourite songs by Stornoway.  I love the lyrics so much, I feel the need to share them here:

Where are we going this fine morning?
What are we doing this fine day?
We're doing the same as every morning

We're staying inside on this fine morning
Staying inside on this fine day
We'll stare at a screen like every morning

And outside the window spring is here
We're going to hibernate all year
Under a pile of A4 snowflakes

'Cause we're the new generation
We are the battery human
But we were born to be free range

We've got the the whole at our fingers
We've got the whole world in our hands
We get the blues as we grow richer

'Cause we need to fix our loose connection
Out in the natural world wide web
We're humans evolved in three dimensions

We were tuned in by natural selection
And we need to go online each day
But inside we don't get no reception

So join the new revolution
To free the battery human
'Cause we were born to be free range

We are the new generation
We are the battery human
But we were born to be free range
