Camped out for a couple of days helping friends plant a few hundred native Irish trees. Mostly hawthorn, with some willow, oak, rowan, birch, and crab apple.

It was cool and showery at night. I didn't sleep much, but it was cosy. Heard a fox and about a dozen pheasants (or the same pheasant a dozen times), The crows kept watch during the day

View of the edge of a field from near the ground. In the foreground, a band of flattened cardboard extends towards the middle, with young trees planted beneath it and growing up through holes in it. To the right is a dense verge of trees, mossy wall, and brambly undergrowth. A few metres away are a few figures talking and working with spades, partly obscured by branches and briars.A bonfire of old wood, burning well in the dark, with nothing visible around it except a pair of feet in socks in the foreground, stretched towards the flames to thaw out after a day in damp wellies.
