Shame it's stuck in the middle of a conifer plantation. Poor tree needs some light.

Yeah, looks steadily out of place doesn't it? Of course it's the conifers that actually are. Lovely old tree though.
Smells like a marketing opportunity for the band.
Yep it looks stunted and not very healthy, a consequence of being starved of light.

Where the sycamore gap guy when we need him?
Berries on Rowans for sure, hunners!
how quickly the birches have dropped leaves
my wife’s convinced our young birch is dying but I disagree…
Locally, the Rowan trees look to have a lot more berries than usual but I think some of that is due to the leaves having now dropped too.
and how many flippin’ berries there are on rowans
Absolutely loads this year, im on red alert for waxwings
