Shaptor Wood
A rare almost level section of the path that crosses the steep wooded hillsides below Shaptor. This area is Pixey Copse. A carpet of bluebells looks likely in a few weeks.

Fiddlehead Fern (curled-up young bracken fern)

Shaptor Wood
This is open access land, but it is much easier to stay on the permissive path through the woodland and view it from here. It felt warm, the sun was shining through the thin canopy, and the wood was protecting us from the wind.
