A wide-angle, eye-level photograph of a dense woodland in Hurst Green. In the foreground, several thick tree trunks covered in vibrant green moss lean slightly into the frame from the left and right, creating a natural border. The forest floor is a carpet of brown, dormant brambles and fallen leaves, punctuated by small patches of ivy. In the background, a chaotic yet rhythmic network of slender, leafless branches fills the sky, captured under soft, overcast light that highlights the textures of the bark and the intricate details of the undergrowth.

Should have saved for #Thicktrunktuesday but, what the hell, I'll just repost it.

Another day of sparkling but shivery sunshine in our corner of south-east England has brought out carpets of Spring flowers and coaxed tulips to start emerging.

It’s that time again when motorists are warned to be careful of crossing amphibians. A small squad of volunteers in the next village also helps by transporting frogs and toads across danger spots to their breeding spot in a pond.

There is always a robin at the corner of Church Way and yesterday there were several, joining in a kind of call and response chorus as we passed by in the late February sunshine. Spring must surely be around the corner. *Sound on.

An oak standing at the entrance to the parish church looks rather sinister now but in a few months will be gloriously green again.

A swiftish walk to the next village this morning as the thermometer struggled to get above zero but the snowdrops near the parish church hinted at warmer days to come.
