Trees are so important to our life on Earth.  I spend a lot of time in the forests around where I live. I am very lucky as they are well managed and looked after.

Under the trees here where I live at this time of year, the bluebells appear. They are such a magical sight.  Most of the forest floor is covered in blue, and well worth a visit, especially early in the morning or in the evening when the sun is setting.  I am lucky that I don't have to wait for the weekend to go and visit, as the crowds are too much these days in the Hallerbos.

At this time of year, whether you are in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere, the trees are colourful, with either the blossom and the new leaves, or the yellow orange or red of Autumn.

Take a photo of a tree today, to celebrate how important they are to us living on this planet.
