What moves in this card

  • The robin on the pillar box glances left and right, cocks its head and fluffs its feathers.
  • The Jack Russell on the step turns its head now and then, flicks its tail and breathes softly, its breath misting in the cold.
  • Warm light flickers in the bow window and through the glass of the door, and the street lamp glows.
  • Now and then the brass on the door catches the light.
  • Stars twinkle above the roof, with the odd shooting star, and now and then a few birds fly over.
  • Snow falls in three depths and slips from the roof, the bay and the pillar box in soft little heaps; frost glints, and gusts lift loose snow along the lane.
