    We went to a nature reserve yesterday. It's a flooded woodland in a steep valley with heathland above and some ancient woodland on the hillsides. There's no human sounds there so the birdsong was incredible, or it was once the rain stopped and when the kids weren't adding to the chorus. I even saw a male cuckoo trying to impress a female on top of a stone wall.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
