April 20th
These are the most beautiful days in the wood. Wonderful weather to walk and to enjoy the magnificent intense colours. Direct sunlight, or shade on the bluebells changes them from light purple to intense dark blue purplish. The translucent, fragile green beech leaves start to hide the grey beech stems on the plateaus and start to fill the sky above the carpet of flowers. From the late afternoon, the air is full of a wonderful scent of flowers.
