By late January, there is considerable warmth in the sun. We also now have more than an hour of sunlight each day.
The setting sun illuminates snow falling from a cloud.
Even in winter we can see rainbows, as a fast moving rain storm clears, to be followed by sunshine.
We have reached the end of 2020 and now look forward to a much improved 2021.
Everywhere there are the first signs of spring. Bulbs are putting on new growth and the flower buds will soon be showing.
Something you very seldom see. The hills above Trogir on the mainland, 55km to the north west were visible because the rain has cleaned the atmosphere. You can even see the line of wind turbines at Seget Gornji. I’ve never seen them from home before.
The kittens have been testing the strength of the green mesh around the citrus trees this week. If it car survive being jumped on, as a kitten trampoline and as a comfy sleeping corner, I have n concerns about winter winds. 😉
Rainfall and warm temperatures make things grow. This especially applies to weeds that have developed to fill their own particular niche in the orchards.
As more and more leaves change colour and fall, I am collecting all that I can to make leaf mould.
