The hawthorns in the hedge are completely overgrown by ivy. There are many green leaves and flowers mixed with red berries. Is the load too heavy for that tree? Will a tree fall in a strong wind?

Later there will be black ivy berries for the birds. There are other plants too; brambles, honeysuckle, roses.

He was the god of dance, drunkenness and the wine press. His father was Pan, the god of the wild. His mother was Gaia, the goddess of the Earth. But is there a connection with Cornwall?

Against the snow everything is dirty. In summer, the wall covered in orange lichen and green moss is...
