For that Christmas-card mood, holly leaves with frost on their edges. It must have been a male bush, so no berries.

Penk near its source as it passes through a green space on the border of Tettenhall Wood and Perton. Early-morning frost covers the vegetation on the banks of the recently deculverted section of the stream.

Sticky horse chestnut buds already developing at the start of December. The tree is by Castle Walk in Bridgnorth. Perhaps the early spring growth is because of a milder climate coming up the Severn valley.

December raspberries and raspberry leaves, lightly frosted early in the morning after a cold night.

Mist swirling from the canal by Compton Lock later on the same winter’s morning as the scenes featured in posts yesterday and the day before.

Beetle on the trunk of a tree. There may have been another one ahead of it, hiding in the crack in the bark.
