Nice to see an urban tree with plants around the base like this one in #Naas. It would be great to see more #suds landscaping in our towns & cities. #urbantree #Kildare

Found what I think is a #squirrel drey on the ground in Avondale, Wicklow today. Knocked by recent storms. I thought it was moss initially, but it's shredded bark. Possibly from these nearby conifers.

"Between a rock and hard place" garden in #Carlow town. It was planted up last year, so it'll be interesting to see how it develops as the plants become established.

By dawns early light... I was worried that the scots pine wouldn't keep up with the birch, oak and alder, but I guess I was wrong.

That's the thing with #invasive species, one day it's a neat little hedge in granny's garden, the next it's rampaging through a local woodland. In this case it's Lonicera nitida.
