Leisurely

Other trees may be shedding leaves and joining the rush to autumn but oak is never in a hurry. This one is just thinking about changing colours.

It's one that was missed from the native trees cull last winter. Let's hope it survives another year at least.

Alders have so far been spared, thus allowing us to enjoy the fabulous character of some great specimens.

These would have to be a component of any 'wild' experience that I could enjoy.
