We have Red Kites here like confetti , probably more than Buzzards but never been lucky enough to see a Black Kite . I think somewhere in England they are breeding Turtle Doves and reliecing them back into managed habitat to suit them .

Just a point ...Most people don't murder someone full stop .

Morning dudes . 10c and damp . Have a great weekend .

Advice on trees that have been aggressively pollarded
Stubby replied to Hobbittree's topic in Trees and the Law
Pretty standard for limes ( I think they are limes ) . Basically you get a bush on a stick . Then repeated every few years . -

Oak is not the best fire wood to go for IMHO. Takes ages to season burns ok but slow . would not make a fire totally with oak . Would mix it with sycamore/ash/beech etc etc . I only use it to put a big lump on last thing to keep the fire in for the morning really . So I would not pay anything for that small pile . If it was beech maybe a tenner tops .

Good morning everyone . Happy bank holiday . 🙂

Sorry mate . The " true acacia " is native in tropical and sub tropical regions of Australia and Africa so I was way off there ! Pseudo acacia , False acacia, black locust are what was being suggested and you are right mate , its not that .
-
What about a million and one Mick ? 😀 Bark looks good when I googled it . This is acacia as opposed to Robinia false acacia ?
-
That's a good shout .

Ancient oak tree cut down in Whitewebbs Park Enfield

Are there two threads on this subject ? If not my meager contribution has pissadeared ! -

Turtle doves brilliant . Not heard one of those calling for years . Loadsa collard doves but not the lovely Turtle doves . The Red wings and Field fares have gone back to eastern Europe here now . Occasionally catch a gimps of a Gold crest or Fire crest in the hedgerow . The Red legged partridge is a " released " game bird here . A few coveys around now shooting is over . Where abouts are you ?

I think you are probably right but , I don't think they are particularly " green " . The mining of the lithium then transporting it across the globe in stonking great ship is a massive carbon foot print . Then there is the pollution from the rubber they get through ( being heavier than the equivalent petrol/diesel car ) then the disposal of spent batteries all adds up . Hydrogen is the way to go I recon . The only thing that comes out of the exhaust is H2O . I am talking about liquid hydrogen direct into the tank not a hydrogen powered electric . I believe Toyota and some others have an engine that will run on hydrogen in a similar way to petrol .
