We had a winter appetizer not long ago. Big snowflakes fluttered onto our garden and I got all excited but my efforts were wasted. Up on the hills above us though it settled for a while and I made an intrepid trek into the hinterland. So did Rupert but his was more of a mad headlong dash at distant sheep. They remained distant so his efforts were in vain too.....thankfully. He is good at catching flys though but they hardly make much of a meal.
