Woodland Snow
Snow, trees and Sky
It is strange how snow completely transforms the wood. Orientation becomes difficult and the wood takes on a completely different feel. The tracks of humans and wildlife cross showing how paths have been refound, or created. The normal birdsong is surpressed and there is a silence which is awsome in its vastness. On this trip out the light was brilliant, but at other times it is dull and brooding with a sky pregnant with unfallen snow.

It was too cold to sit !
Anyway there was work to be done. The weight of snow brought down a few trees in the wood. This one was a large hazel which had fallen across the path on the Northern boundary of the wood.
Tree Down
It did not take long to clear the path.
