To appreciate the wonder of trees it is usually helpful to look up.
But trees also drop clues on the ground.
If you see something like this on your path you immediately know
you are passing under a horse chestnut or 'conker' tree.
BUT . . . it also shows that squirrels have been at work. They seem to like nipping the new young shoots off horse chestnuts, but they only eat a tiny bit before they drop the rest on to the floor.
Squirrels these days eh?
