Seeing green

Some people are water babies - they're never happier than when they're near, on, or - preferably - in the water.

Me? I'm a monkey. Give me trees and leaves any day. Let me climb, let me run and let me swing through the wooded glades.

Today was a reasonably rubbish day. Not really bad, but one of those boring days where you wonder why you bother.

And then on the way home I realised the leaves had finally burst forth while I was away and the New Forest - my Forest - was back again.

This photo has had absolutely nothing done to it. The leaves really are that bright vibrant colour.

And my world is green again.
