  1. For those of you who know #Avebury, then this mini #grove of #beech trees is almost as #sacred as the stones.

    Sadly, footsteps have badly eroded the roots and soil, and emergency measures have been implemented in the form of hessian sacks filled with chalk.

    Also, well meaning folk usually attach all sorts of junk to the branches, which have also caused prolific damage to the branches.

    The National Trust now removes everything often.

    Bring only your intensions and take only nice memories.

  3. I have a few photos of this old warrior beech, looking older than it's years because of the plantation they stuck around it. This was taken in 2007, sadly I don't think it survived - you can't get near it now. In the woods at Biddlestone Chapel. #Tree #Forest #Wood #Beech #Nature #Northumberland

  5. Alpine Overture
    The ‘turning of the fagus’ in Tasmania’s alpine regions is one of the most spectacular seasonal events to witness. The leaves of the deciduous beech or ‘fagus’ (Nothofagus gunnii) transform from green to a vibrant tapestry of red, yellow and orange in autumnal transition.
