What a difference a year makes

Boxing day. Seen a butterfly in the garden today flying around the brambles at the bottom of the garden. The short time that I saw it; it looked like a small tortoiseshell.
Big contrast to last winter when we had all that snow.
There's not many birds in the garden this year compared to last year. The most visible change has been in the number of reed buntings. There was at least 42 last winter. I've only seen up to 4 this winter.
