Eyes peeled

A winter week spent scouting can lead to you noticing things that might ordinary passed you by which is why I believe passionately in (re) learning alertness and observation skills and one example is how there seems to be a unmade trail to this arch of trees.

In what is a very vulnerable section of woodland with a road hidden in the distance not only can you make out the pattern but also is valuable structure.

Here two trees frame effectively the backdrop of woodland.

Here you can see the living organisms in the tree on these two branches that go off in a V like formation.
