A Walk in the Woods

I went to Senpere in the province of Lapurdi, Iparraldean (In the north basque country)(france) the other day and went exploring. The trees finally have all their leaves back, and on this particular day, due to the heat, the forest was sweating with life.

The original Basque forest is an Oak-dominated woodland. The vast majority of the Basque country, however, has been replaced by Pinus radiata, a choice timber species.

This particular patch of forest, to my limited knowledge, seemed to be rather untouched.
