Common Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) Canopy, Wuppertal

This image presents a lush canopy of a Common Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus), viewed from below, with its vibrant, fresh green leaves illuminated by the spring sun against a clear blue sky. The intricate network of branches is visible through the dense foliage, while a small, unidentified bird adds a subtle detail in the upper sky. Captured in Wuppertal, likely within its renowned botanical garden, this photo beautifully illustrates the vitality of nature in early May.
