Not featured, me rugby tackling our biggest young ram to check and spray his feet which is a shame as it would have added some comedy audio-visual 😅

Without the lowest of winter light there wouldn't be these shadows of the land of the past, both wild and human.

Without razor clear winter air we wouldn't look and see for miles. I can see in perfect detail the white lighthouse on Flat Holm Island,Ynys Echni, the southern most point of Wales.

Without the rare blue winter sky making you look up at the miracle of it, you wouldn't see wheeling gullies of gulls and massing, sweeping, hoards of starlings where land meets sea.

Without the winter wind the waves wouldn't come, full of ray for the fishing and molluscs for the birds.

Without the low winter tides there wouldn't be the shriek of the reshanks. The serenity of the shelducks, the Gadwalls from Iceland, the Dunlins from Russia.

We are told a new year dawns. We are told to start consuming spring. But nature tells me winter is still here and not to rush towards its finish line. Not yet. Not on a day like today.

A round up from the first frosty week of winter here on the coast. We have hardy breeds of sheep, goats and cattle that overwinter outdoors. They forage and dig themselves deep into the scrub and heather if the weather turns. This winter grazing is incredibly important in keeping the grassland full of a diverse mix of plants that support nature across this extraordinarily beautiful place ❤️
