A view of this most beautiful silver-birch tree on my favourite walk. It seems almost impossible that the silver trunk and branches can be natural but they are caused by the bark pigment reflecting the bright sunshine today. Seen on the round walk of Dovestones reservoir here in Greenfield. The tower on the hill is the local TV relay tower. I have included the wall as a nice curved lead-in to the centre of attraction here. Enjoy full size.

Another winter look at this lone-Silver Birch tree that never fails to impress. Even after passing it many times each year for the last 40 years or so, I never tire of seeing it. Hopefully you don’t neither. Have a great day.

After exploring a completely new place just the day before this, I decided to re-visit a small area just a 15 minutes’ walk from my door called Glodwick Lowes. Snow had fallen overnight and so I was in a winter wonderland. Here is one of my favourite types of trees, the Silver Birch with a still autumn leaved beech tree at its side. Just before seeing this, I saw a couple of very shy Roe Deer that eluded my camera. Best at full screen. Enjoy the day

A past look at conditions in an ideal winter. Here we see one of my favourite trees, the silver birch, bedecked with hoarfrost. Enjoy the day
