In the Western Pyrenees, sheep protecting themselves from the heat under the shade of an old beech tree (France). Close to the Mondarrain peak (2,456 feet above the sea level) many very old beeches can be seen offering their shade to hikers or animals. Dans les Pyrénées occidentales, brebis se protégeant de la chaleur à l'ombre d'un vieux hêtre (France). Près du pic du Mondarrain (749 m) beaucoup de très vieux hêtres peuvent être vus offrant leur ombrage aux randonneurs ou aux animaux.
