Hardwick Wood in Winter
Due to the very thick mud on the paths, Hardwick Wood will be closed from Monday along with other Wildlife Trust woods in the area. After I had finished my usual Saturday morning coppicing session, I took a few images of the wood looking great in the winter sunshine (phone images). I love the way the trees just lie seemingly relaxed on the floor of the wood as mosses and fungi gradually cover them and eventually return them to the soil.

Historical Toft 1. Railway Embankment
When I moved to Toft in 1967 trains were still running between Oxford and Cambridge. It had been operational for over 100 years. The line closed after the last day of service on 30th December 1967. The embankment in Toft is completely overgrown but part of the original fencing is still evident while horses graze undisturbed in the neighbouring fields. The hoar frost and bright sunshine gave a new feel to the woodland.
