Silver birch

We had planned to go for a walk today but, after yesterday's distractions, spent the day playing catch-up...
MrM worked on a guitar, while I finished sorting out the two big cupboards in the spare room, and started moving things from the living room in to the cupboards. Lots of smaller items safely packed away.

Both so busy that we forgot the time! By the time we reached the Common for a very short walk, the light was fading, taking with it the colour from the landscape. There are several piles of branches like this all around the path, from trees that were uprooted or damaged by the gales in the autumn. They'll be left to provide a habitat for insects.
