winter essentials (and by essentials i'm not talking about a bike, or legs*) are the things that make riding year round bearable. they're the things i use that mean i can walk into the office on the coldest, wettest, darkest morning and mock those who stand slack-jawed that i haven't used a car because i know that riding in these conditions isn't all that bad.
providing you've got the gear.
it's all about the extremities
5: the buff
4: overshoes
3: sealskin socks
2: waterproof, windproof gloves
1: wheel brows (or mudguards as traditionalists would have it)

The Buff-rumped Thornbill (Acanthiza reguloides) is a small, lively songbird native to southeastern Australia, known for its distinctive buff-colored rump. This endearing bird features olive-brown upperparts, a paler underbelly, and a striking buff patch on its lower back, which is particularly noticeable in flight. Inhabiting woodlands and forests, the Buff-rumped Thornbill is often seen in flocks, busily flitting through the foliage in search of insects and spiders. Its social nature and soft, high-pitched calls make it a charming presence in its habitat. The Buff-rumped Thornbill's subtle yet beautiful plumage and active foraging behavior make it a delightful subject for bird watchers and photographers.

Buff-banded Rail, Gallirallus philippensis
It is usually very shy and only occasionally seen as it quickly dashes between clumps of grass or other overgrown vegetation. The Buff-banded Rail is often otherwise difficult to observe as it skulks about, concealed by plant cover.
From my observations, it has a similar manner at times to the Bush Curlew of ‘freezing’ in position when disturbed and blending perfectly into its surroundings. However it takes off very quickly if it feels threatened.

Walking the dog, I looked in my favourite ditch and was surprised to see a buff-striped keelback (Amphiesma stolatum) resting on top of some chopped down branches. As I was readying my camera, a Chinese cobra (Naja atra) popped up next to it, noticed me, and slipped away quickly.

Spilosoma luteum - Buff Ermine moth.
The outside of my house is festooned with these little fellers at the minute. They're very tame, and pose well in their regal little fur coats.
