“The ‘leafy month of June’ is upon us—the high-water mark of our English summer has reached us. The rich greenery of our lanes and woods is at its freshest and best. What hosts of small birds hide within the green thickets of our copses and hedges! What myriads of bright bird-eyes watch thence! … In June the ‘sweet birds’ are singing in every green tree.” (Taylor, “The Queen of the Year”, PR1)
