One day of snow!

It snowed heavily on Sunday morning but it was gone by 14:00,however the shift I was on with decided to forgo their break and instead looked out of the windows
It started with a chap rushing in to say he had just seen a huge Rabbit(it was a hare) go running up the drive he was so excited that everyone followed him to the windows,then it just did not stop,a flock of long tailed tits,worked along the hedge opposite followed by a storm of fieldfares the whole lot stayed about 10minutes then disappeared into the falling snow as first a kestrel then a sparrow hawk made an appearance,two hares appeared in the field and dashed in circles to the consternation of a flock of about 50 canada geese which retreated back to the swan field,then everything disappeared again leaving only a robin on a snowy branch
