In this dark and grey January
it is still possible to find
wonders of nature.
Encourage yourself to notice them.
Greet the sunshine and birdsong in the morning,
look at the cloud formation,
see some blooms, cheering up the world.
Nature is a healer in many ways.
Always look with fresh eyes,
bringing wonders to your surroundings.
The wonders of Nature are endless.
Walt Disney
My strawberry plants, lovely and green.
Yes!!
Thank you Cindy , I know you do! ♥
Yesterday on the way to the bank we noticed a snail on the sidewalk nibbling something. For safety’s sake we placed him/her onto the wall nearby where there was some moss. On the way back, he/she was back on the sidewalk nibbling again. We guessed he/she knew what they were doing! Like goes on all winter long! — Kim & Steffi in Hamburg
Haha, obviously it was yummy to come back like that.
ich staune auch immer über die Wunder der Natur, liebe Ute, möge es dir auch heute gut gehen, Klaus
Danke Klaus, Es war ein stressiger Tag, Immer wieder schoen wenn man wieder zuhause ist.
Your strawberry plants look marvellously healthy – that leaf shine! I was admiring a neighbour’s stoic olive tree this morning. And we even benefit when the trees have no leaves – so much easier to see the birds bobbing about. Have a wonderful, nature-filled day Ute! x
Thank you Liz, I seem to be lucky with strawberries. They all come so well every year. Probably they just like my garden. I saw a Jay the other day, that was so lovely!
How lovely! When we lived in Ealing, before moving to Edinburgh, there used to be dozens of Jays in our local park – always such a pleasure to see them. We are too far north for them now, but have other birds to admire – six bullfinches in the tree outside our window the other day, for example. Gorgeous! 🙂
Lovely I can imagine, Ealing is lovely , my friend lives there and has a beautiful garden, we sit out there in Summer. 🙂

That is a thought to hold on to, I love it Thank you so much!
lass dir vom Wetter nicht die gute Laune verderben, Klaus
Oh no! 🙂
lass es dir richtig gut gehen am Wochenende, Klaus
So very true, dear Ute!
Those strawberries are lovely. 🙂
Today I saw cloud that lokked like a beautiful dawn in the South when I loked through my window at the wintery sky at noon.
Yesterday met hundrets of crows while walking through the Feldmark – it was like in The Birds, just the opposite because it was so peaceful.
Much Love! ♥
Nice that you notice all these things. Sometimes we have great cloud formations and you can just get carried away thinking what they could be.
Love to you! ♥
I also just noticed that a letter troll must have played with my previous comment. Or I was so distracted by one of those pretty clouds while typing the words that it fogged up my brain… 😉
Haha, no worries! 🙂
viel Glück für das Wochenende wünsche ich dir, Klaus
Danke gleichfalls!
The view from my window is like a giant snow globe which is breath-taking (in a good way)! But going outside right now in this subzero weather takes my breath away (not in a good way). I think I’ll stay inside and watch nature through the window. 🙂

Indeed stay in the warmth and keep your breath. Enjoy nature from the inside and cherish the beauty of the snowglobe!
wünsche dir einen Samstag ohne Stress und Sorgen, Klaus
Danke Klaus!
sammel Kraft für die kommende Woche, Klaus
Ja , das brauche ich…. habe schon angefangen! 🙂 Einen schoenen Sonntag Klaus.
