Snow on the Ben

You can tell when winter is approaching - first when the snow puts a hat on 'the Ben' as it has today and then when the deer come in to the garden to see what's left to nibble on. Our guests in Cherryview told us at breakfast time that they had been watching a couple of deer while they were getting organised. We had seen some footprints but this is the first visit of the year, from the deer that is, not our guests; though it was their first visit too and they are planning to return now that they have discovered what a beautiful area we live in.
