life in the woods


Life slowed down as soon as we stepped into the wood. We were overtaken by the green of the trees enveloping us and the constant activity of the creatures surrounding us. The woodpecker responding to the urgent calls of her young, the gentle sound of the cuckoo belying her mischievous act, red squirrels scurrying and swinging high in the branches and even a hedgehog lolloped by seemingly unaware of our presence. This bustle of life was of a different kind and we had time to wait for the tiny white star burst flowers to turn into their delicious elixir.
