Mrs Grumble was in tears today. The RSPB have cut down the larch trees she used to make a point of visiting every spring. They want to recreate the heath. Nothing wrong with that really but they could have spared the larches.
At the moment the Bourne Woods, which soon will no longer be woods, look as if a tsunami has hit them. Odd silver birches have been left standing which just add to the look of devastation. If they were going to leave any trees why not the copse of larches. Silver birches are the first trees to recolonise anyway. It's crazy leaving these rather pathetic dismal specimens.
Mrs Grumble can't show you a picture of a larch because they have cut them all down. They are deciduous anyway so there would not be much to photograph at this time of year.
