1 in 10,000,000 is the risk we face from trees, trees as I will show you are rotten to the core and within 1/4mile of you right now. If I came to where you live and pointed out every tree that has fungi within them it would take a day to walk a mile.

 

You are only in fact les than twice as likely to be killed by a tree than you are struck by lightning.

 

come with me on a tour of some of my sites and I will show you just how decayed a tree must be to fail:thumbup1:

don't you worry, this year is the "tour year" after june i'm pretty much free most weekends and evenings and will be making the effort to go all over the country

 

it will also help in collecting data and images for my database:thumbup:

Got this one in flower too, stunning it was, as for a biggy, I will pic my brain cos i seem to remember there being a bigger one somewhere. have you started a thread on this yet?

still building the database but collecting pics in the background, as to avoid copyrights etc i hope to take most of the pics myself or from help of others with permissions and recognition

 

tis going to be a big job and will be a while before its ready but once it is it WILL be the definitive online resource/phone app for tree identification

 

 

anyway, don't want to derail your thread too much so carry on the tree id etc in this thread

 

so, back to hispidus:biggrin:
