Black Poplar trees are distinctive along the Thames, mainly because there are so few of them! Please support a new project to restore Black Poplars through the Thames valley by propagating and planting to create a network of new trees. Donate ๐crowdfunder.co.uk/p/qr/qW8YXโฆ

This old Sweet Chestnut in the Bishop's Palace Gardens in Chichester is crumbling into the earth on one side while thriving on the other, its roots fed by mulberries from the tree next to it. #ThickTrunkTuesday @TiCLme @rikardorichards
For @thorneh exploring Swinbrook, Widford and the Asthalls

A little early for #wildflowerhour... the season's starting to change already...here on Wittenham Clumps the sloes are going blue, meadow crane's-bill seed pods are full, common knapweed in full strength and hummingbird hawkmoth feeding on musk thistle. #summer

Yesterday's Goring to Abingdon walk via #TheRidgeway as far as Wallingford. Met Thames Path Champion Wendy at Clifton Lock. Curtis & his wife have excelled themselves this year with their flower display. Ice cream sales fund more plants, so no need to feel guilty! @ThamesPathNT
