A sense of perspective and one's small place in the scheme of things is very obvious when encountering such survivors as these. Druid's Grove near Box Hill is home to a host of the most ancient of yew trees - allegedly up to 3000 years old.
In the spirit of today's wild theme, I walked mindfully focusing on the sights, sounds, smells of an ancient southern English woodland - full of trees, wild flowers, grasses, fungi, insects, birds. Underfoot, shards of flint and hunks of chalk.
