White rabbits, Happy Imbolc, and St Brigid's Day, and Schubert

 All kinds of things to celebrate today.

We woke to the first snow in over 300 days



Gone in an hour, but the raised light level was a good start.


The days are stretching, the light getting stronger.  Imbolc celebrates the upcoming arrival of growth and spring flowering.

And here's Edith Holden's February entry.


And yesterday was Schubert's birthday. He didn't have many, poor duck, but what he achieved in his life of composition! 

Here's one of the great reasons to be on Twitter, a cellist with his dog,  playing Schubert's Serenade outside his cottage in Western Ireland. Happy birthday, Franz


Check out the melody on YouTube if you're not familiar with it. Or if you are.

Happy day everyone, however you celebrate. Life's a banquet!
