Big old trees keep giving to local ecology for decades after death. This is an ancient oak in Windsor Great Park, contributing to the very end!

Spring is really starting to show in the trees and hedges of Pembrokeshire, Wales. Although restricted to the same walk in the fields adjoining our garden at the moment; watching the trees and hedges change each day on the field boundaries is making every walk interesting.

Spring 2020 has sprung in Pembrokeshire, Wales with the beautiful Blackthorn blossom flowering on the hedgerows along the coastal path.

The Tortworth Chestnut - #GreatTreesOfGlos

"Supposed to be six hundred years old, 1st Jan 1800.

May man still guard thy venerable form,
From the rude blasts, and tempestuous storm,
Still mayst thou flourish through succeeding time,
And last, long last, the wonder of the clime."
