21 December - a bright start, but clouding over with showers mid- day, freshening gusty SW, max 11C

Well, the shortest day(light) has come and thankfully gone.  I learnt today that one reason the 25th was designated as Christmas Day is because those with a keen eye can detect the sun has moved in the sky, ie, the daylight length is longer.

The mild changeable weather continues and looks like it's here a few more days yet, confusing all comers.

A Green Woodpecker called from the wood east of the village, little else to report today though.
