Unaware

I can't tell you the name of this tree but its stunning at the moment with its yellow 'pussywillow' type flowers, later this will have beautiful pink blossem, that will almost give you the sense thats its snowing.

Spring arrives

And the Beech slowly awakes.

Last of the Winter

These last few winter trees were taken at the same place near my local City in February and since spring is a matter of weeks away and the first signs are already showing I'm putting these up. All the pictures from now will depict the first signs of Spring. Iv noticed the Hazel has its pussy willow and the Elders are showing their buds, so its time to take the camera out again.

Greatness

Look closely and you will see the tree spirits that reside within this majestic tree.Picture taken on Tuesday down at my local Park, so there are more to come.

Winters End

Soon, these trees will change and i look forward to capturing their Spring attire. Another tree from my neighbourhood, this one is situated in an alley that's opposite my home, and boy this trees Spring attire is breath taking beautiful. Tomorrow I'm heading to a big park with lots of ancient Oaks, some even have home makers within them.

Dwellings

The one thing that attracts me to trees without their leaves on in the winter months, is how you are able to see the vast amounts of bird dwellings. There are so many, and i love guessing which bird made which nest. This particular tree was taken in St. James Park. I often see a couple of Ravens sitting in this tree, so i wonder if this nest has been made by them and used year after year.

Imbolc Tree

Taken at the grounds of Gloucester Cathedral last weekend. We had lots of snow, but that soon turned to slush!!
