Hi Yaroslava from northwest England. I saw the news about the Friday night attack. So awful 🥰. Here, we're heading south to visit my dad for lunch. It is a grey and damp day here. I don't like motorways but it has to be done (I'm not driving and taking photos!).

First bird of my day. A gentle yelp of a lone herring gull woke me up this morning. It was still dark but certainly time to rise. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

Hi Yaroslava from northwest England. Good news about a better than expected night 🥰. Yesterday we visited a stone circle, Long Meg and her Daughters. The large sandstone outer stone is Meg and the big circle of 60+ stones are her Daughters. It's a special place.

First bird of my day. A couple of herring gulls flew high across a sky striped pink, powder-blue and soft-smoke grey. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

Hi Yaroslava from northwest England.That tree is beautiful & festive. I've been out & about, reading your posts but no time to reply. I read you were feeling tired. This isn't much but I hope this flag I saw in a tiny village we visited today will give you some joy 🇺🇦. Ukraine is never forgotten.

First bird of my day. Lake District jackdaws flying across the grey sky in small groups, seen from our hotel window. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

Hi Yaroslava from northwest England. Thank you for the glimpse into your life in Kyiv. A glimpse of my life ... it is sunny here. I've had breakfast and listened to the news about the talks. I've made sandwiches and a flask for our walk today and we're off!

First bird of my day. In the early gloom of a fine morning a blackbird landed in the cotoneaster bush to fill up on some more of the berries. #FirstBirdOfMyDay
