The imported red oak is not universally approved of on Blacka. Among native trees it can be seen to clash. Here it is trying on its gladrags, showing the indigenous specimens what they should be doing in this season. It will get no response from alder which never turns colourful when leaves die, preferring drab mourning colours.
Native oak, of course, can display fine autumn colourings. But only those that have managed to avoid SWT's chainsawings.
