Very interesting post, Felicity. It is always sad when mature trees are lost, especially ones we are particularly fond of.

It will be fascinating watching your gean trees grow, and so satisfying when you get the first blossom :-)

Thank you Angie. It’s been great seeing the alders shooting up. I hope the geans put on rapid growth as juveniles too.

The cycle of life unfolding before your eyes. I am sorry for your losses, but it seems that the land is gaining greatly from your care.

Thanks. Over seven years we’ve seen a lot of gradual change, plus some more abrupt losses, such as a young fox that had been shot last year 😡.
