Autumn 2013

Lovely pic's there Zigs, is that your new house?

 

Just had to get the camera out again at work today as the early morning sun caught this White Poplar, producing a blaze of colour.

 

Lovely colours Trunky Personally i think this has been the best year for a while for Autumn colours,the trees seem to have hung onto their leaves longer too

 

Bit of Autumn Sun at West Bay today

 

Medlars

 

Mistletoe

 

Looks a nice fresh young green piece. I love that green..So- it doesn't have to be an apple tree in an orchard. Any idea what tree it is in please?

Looks like a Hawthorn? Zigs will confirm I'm sure.

Jenny, here's an old thread where we listed all the different trees we've seen Mistletoe growing on.

That's a Hawthorne Jenny, just drinking the wine made partially from that tree earlier in the year

 

Thanks for those posts trunky and Ziggy.
I maybe able to add to your tree list after tomorrow - watch this space,
Jenny
