A beautiful birch tree just north of Glenridding from a couple of years ago.

A beautiful birch tree just north of Glenridding from a couple of years ago.
Yesterday during a walk in a Yorkshire wood, I spotted beech trees with rippled bark. And possibly a sycamore with rippled bark (- the timber is worth a lot more as the ripple shows in the grain pattern).
An interesting phenomenon.

My avatar tree is a larch tree that I used to admire whilst driving up the Struggle from Ambleside to Kirkstone Pass. Sadly it has keeled over in the recent storms, possibly also affected by ramorum disease.
