  1. Very nice find. [emoji106]
  2. He's got quite a few vids. Thanks for the tip.
  3. Cheers mate. Will do.
  4. Normally numbered tags on trees are there from tree surveys done in the past or present. However it might be something different if you are talking forestry or something, I only know them as regards numbers that correlate to a tree survey, put on there by an arb consultant.
  5. Moor hens nesting on the pond.
  6. Milled up some short posts and then had them finished on the table saw for fencing.
  7. Cheers mate. [emoji106]
  8. Mallard ducklings growing up
  9. Fantastic looking colours. Surprised to see that on sycamore.
  10. Is it Kretzschmaria? Lime is quite susceptible to this. I've lost a couple of old limes recently with it. Kretzschmaria deusta - Google Search G.CO
  11. Hard to pick one favourite. Where I work we have a very majestic Cedar of Lebanon which is just absolutely beautiful and enormous at over 8 metre girth and growing and particularly tall. But otherwise probably fondest memories as a kid climbing (what seemed large at the time) an old mulberry tree which happened to be on the estate I grew up on, no idea how old the tree was but the house was built in 1664 and had old greenhouses, etc... Otherwise I would say the big horse chestnut tree we used to climb as kids, it was in one of the farmers fields and the enjoyment of playing conkers for hours at a time with friends. Brings back old memories.
  12. Not sure about the hammocks and things hanging from the trees of that size, but they probably don't appreciate that too much. However from the photos you have of the pear tree, can't see much. Potentially honey fungus, have you noticed any mushrooms growing around the base at any time?
  13. IMG 7249 https://youtu.be/ptBeBfNNoEY A couple of young badgers out in the woods.
  14. What contact do you use to get hold of someone for the Frontier Sawmills. I have tried the email on their UK site but it bounces back. Cheers.
  15. Very nice find there Gary. Not seen that before.
  16. As Paul says, galls of some sort. Not a disease. But you might want to give your oak some feed and plant him out before it’s too late in the season.
  17. You get what you pay for I would say. It depends what you want to be cutting with a folding saw? The cheaper end of the silky folding saws are not much more than £20.00 and they are good. I use Silky and ARS and have used others in the past but don't see the point in using a cheaper saw that doesn't speed up your working time or effort. IMHO.
  18. Yes Common Lime being a hybrid has the problem of epicormic growth at the base of the trunk normally. We have a fairly old large leafed lime, it doesn't have that problem. I think large leafed lime have a darker coloured leaf from what I have seen.
  19. Never too easy to tell, my first thought was common lime. Nice tree though.
  20. Finished off some oak today to make up some tree stakes with.
