In the Heart of the Woods

The universe is a self-help committee and if trees grow it must be so that birds may benefit. The great concern of our feathered friends have always been to find a perch out of reach of cats. Long before the advent of telephone poles, the Almighty, anxious about their safety, thought up the larch, the silver birch and the sycamore, just so that the little tawny owl, the great tit and the goldcrest rmay find a perch up above, thus ensuring their survival.
