A quick trip to get some nuts

Went to my favourite wood where I had seen a nice crop of hazelnuts earlier. Thought I would get a few before the squirrels had them all. Well, the squirrels have definitely been removing the nuts as there weren't as many on the tree as last time. So I picked a few to try before they had them all. They aren't fully ripe yet, so I'm going to keep a few to see if they ripen at home. You can eat them now though and they have a nice crunchy kernel.


It won't be long before the chestnuts are ready, so that will be a visit to the Forest of Dean in October.
