The Living Forest (148) : Blackthorn

Everywhere in the forest, Blackthorn shrubs can be seen in full bloom at the moment.
At the end of summer, the shrub is adorned with lots of beautiful berries as can be seen in the picture below.

The wood of Blackthorn is extremely hard and is highly valued for making walking sticks.
