White Stuff

A lot of snow fell this morning - heavy, wet stuff, that melted away after less than one hour. 

Of course, the cats had to go out and investigate, but they were mostly hiding under the garden furniture and tried to avoid getting wet. 

Later, P & I walked to the supermarket for some shopping, and saw cranes (I had forgotten my mobile at home and couldn’t take a photo), and even later, well after sunset, we heard cranes calling again. They seemed to fly quite low, underneath the clouds and in the drizzle. I hope they won’t suffer for migrating too late.
