Winter Wonderland

After a wonderful weekend in Invercargill celebrating the engagement of my partner's brother and girlfriend we had the rather challenging task of travelling back to Dunedin after a good 20-30cm of snow had fallen Sunday morning. It went all pretty smoothly until we got to Galloway street where it got a bit slippery. After sliding into the gutter we unpacked and began to marvel at the whiteness. My garden had been transformed into a magical fairytale.

Woke up this morning to find this little begger hunting around on the bird table for breakfast. Also found that the sugar water had been emptied and after 3 minutes of putting it back on the table the silvereyes, tui and bellebirds had made the discovery.
