Spring in the wood!

Well, it did seem as if Spring had truly arrived in the wood last week. Seems to have vanished for the moment, but here are some pictures captured at the end of March.

The best part of the woodland for plants at the moment is the newly coppiced area in Sweep wood. We started work there 2 years ago and the plants are loving the light!

The first bluebells of the year are coming out.

The brash piles we left around are being overcome by honeysuckle and look great. The birds are loving them!
