An excellent article today.

I am still seeing ash trees with beautiful canopies.

Saddened to see the ash tree in the front garden is showing more of the ash die-back infection than before. Last year it was so vigorous that I had thought it had managed to come through, after three years of looking pretty sick, but it is evidently still struggling.

Last November I walked the South Downs Way, a long-distance footpath in south-east England. Along the way I learned a lot about the challenges facing wildlife and plant life in one of the country's most beautiful landscapes.
