At Risk

It's hard to believe that Starlings and Ash Trees are listed as being at risk.
These birds were perched at the top of the Ash Tree in a strong wind, they seemed to be quite content.
The tree is at the other side of a neighbours fence, they keep agitating for it to be cut down, they should have thought about the tree when they bought their house 50 years ago. The tree would have been fully grown then. It seems quite a healthy specimen, which is good as there are many diseased throughout the country.
