Life's a Beech

Not really. This old friend is a Red Beech at the park in Hof ter Saksen. It's estimated to be about 300 years old. It's partner fell in 2013 in a big storm and the park have allowed it to lay where it fell and rot. I expect more photos will roll around in due course.

Meanwhile it has been very blowy, but not enough to be a danger to any trees locally.
