    In Bristol we have had very nice days all through the Christmas period. Birds have been out every day flying 1.5 hrs in the clear blue sky. They only go out once a day just to keep them fit. Did have a little snow one night but it was gone by lunchtime.

    It has been sub zero here all day. -8 C on the way to work this morning and snow from 4pm - 6 pm. I was off the last 3 days and although cold and very icy we had some fantastic days. I was out with the dog for a couple of hours at a time down the beach and along the river it was great. Only managed to get the birds out yesterday but they had a good fly.

    Paul.

    Lovely day today. I let the birds out and cleaned the loft then sat in the garden. About an hour later half the birds came back. It was an hour after this the rest all but two came back. I sat it the garden for another hour and noticed the last two coming home they were at such a hight I thought they were tipplers at first...

    Loads of snow in Sunderland. Its not as cold as it was yesterday and the drinkers havent frozen. Birds have not been out as the snow would cover them if they landed on the floor

    Nice picture Mike
