  1. my thoughts exactly! you just have to question the thinking behind posting these ones, I mean BSi will rip you to shreds for copyright!
  2. if your taking the kids, you could do FAR worse than Bradgate deer park, the deer are tame and the kids will love it.
  3. Adam, keep it up mate, and remember there is no guidelines for making a great thread, no rule book as such, its yours, and if anyone thinks they can do it better, they should go and do it, rather than tell others how to do it! Rigging is an artform, especially on trees that have decays or non perfect form, lots of guys and girls too will gain a lot from it im sure. good thread fella.
  4. nice one David, is that a bat roost with the chicken?
  5. It is highly likely that each autumn I will be doing a foray for both the northern contingent and those based in the midlands. So each weekend in september one in the south one in the midlands and one in the far north:thumbup1: all plans in motion.

  9. Smashing shots, I was looking at the scars on its base only a few weeks prior, fantastic to see it confirmed!
  10. I will always judge a man more by how he thinks and carries himself than by how he spells, but David is right it is important, but not essential if it means the difference between saying and being quiet:thumbup:

  20. Pluerotus ostreatus- never seen it on Oak before so really interesting shots. it wont do much harm to the tough old oak, it does indicate root issues as it fruits on the column of dead wood associated with the dysfunctional trunk section/vascular pathway once associated with the damaged root/s. it will be restricted I suspcet in this Oak. I would want to have a little airspading done to uncover the extent of the damage/compromised root system. and it can fruit any time of year fellas
