Trees of interest.

A brief spot of sunlight highlighted this tree in the school grounds this morning, the leaves on northern side have all but gone.
About 10 years ago the school did some alterations and one of the stipulations was that some trees must be planted, they failed to comply until Mrs J rattled their cage pointed out that their deliberate mistake would be taken to a higher authority. This is one of the trees that were soon planted.
The extra is our Silver Birch, Betula Snow Queen shedding its paper-like bark
