Common Nature

Oh, wow. I've deliberately gone to see bluebell woods when I was lucky enough to visit the UK at the right time of year; and I have been endlessly and permanently enchanted. But at the time, my interest was basically literary, and I didn't think about what kinds of trees the bluebells lived amongst. To find out that they are chestnuts, now that I know a little about trees and phenology generally, is amazing.
