Blue sky. A brown brick building with small clock tower in the top of the roof. Green doors and windows. Building is set on grassland which is all covered in frost.
Warmer today - but the frosty morning feels so much nicer!
But the cuckoo in the tree next door is really having fun, so perhaps it's better.

We saw this Brown Hairstreak on today's #tootingcommon butterfly survey, almost two years since the only other one, and in exactly the same spot! (@BC_Surrey @OsbornAnnabel)
A Mother Shiptonβs Moth was new for the butterfly survey on #tootingcommon today. Named after a sixteenth century prophetess because the wing pattern allegedly resembles her face with hook nose ..
Lots of White-letter Hairstreak today on sunny #TootingCommon. A @BC_Surrey walk to see WLH on Thursday 17th leaves from Tooting Athletics track (SW16 1RR) at 10:30. Showers are forecast but with sunny intervals so hopefully WLH will still be seen. All welcome, binoculars useful.
This Banded Demoiselle wafting around #tootingcommon lake is the first I've seen here. (It was sticking to the tiny reed-bed so I could n't get a better photo without getting into the lake!)
