What is it about woodlands that draws so many of us into their leafy lairs?

And why do the woods give so many people a sense of peace and inspiration?

The short answer is, I don't know.

But I can offer my own musings about the allure of woodlands...

And why the simplicity and peace of the woods seems to make a lot of modern life appear, quite frankly, somewhat fatuous.

An Encounter with Nature...

A few days ago, before the date of this post, something special occurred.

While walking late at night on a quiet city road, I came across a mother red fox with her three cubs.

and why being grounded in nature is important.
