A 450-yo oak is felled without permission by a Toby Carvery (don’t eat there), who falsely claimed it was "dead".
A tree alive when The Gunpowder Plot was hatched, which supports a web of 2000+ species, is in pieces.
Legal protection for heritage trees needed.

An exceptionally cold morning (-9) with the Caledonian pinewoods bathed in freezing fog. The sunlight was just catching the top of the clouds. These moments are so rare, so was lucky to have the chance to witness this.

Scots pine is an evergreen conifer native to northern Europe. Mature trees grow to 35m and can live for up to 700 years. My new drawing is now available... theweeowlart.etsy.com/listing/1697...

A silence settles on ancient woodland at sunset

The birds, already singing in hushed tones, go quiet as the shadows lengthen

Any noise at all now alerts the senses of every living thing. The atmosphere is somewhat electric

It is my favourite time

Today is a gift.
Once we live this day, we can't get it back.
Don't let disappointment stop you from enjoying this day.
Start praying again, dreaming again, loving again, laughing again.
There's no guarantee we'll be here tomorrow.
