Set back from the busy thoroughfare of Oxford Road, this statuesque ash tree has all the characteristics for which it’s celebrated. Tall and graceful in appearance with a wide spreading lush canopy of green. In winter, ash is easily recognised by its smooth grey twigs, fissured bark and hard, black leaf buds. Ash is a very long-lived tree, reaching up to 400 years old and growing to a height of 35 metres.
The ash is one of the UK’s few native trees and the third most common tree in Britain, making up 30% of our woodland cover. They also provide the perfect habitat for a multitude of wildlife. The airy canopy and early leaf fall allows sunlight to reach the woodland floor, providing perfect conditions for wildflowers. Bullfinches may eat the seeds and woodpeckers, owls, redstarts and nuthatches use the trees for nesting. Ash bark on older trees such as these is often covered with lichens and mosses.

My friend who coaches the under 16s wanted a shot like this so I went for a panoramic. Bit annoyed I couldnt get to the centre of the pitch to take it but still pleased with it, who needs a fish eye?!!
Schools Cup Final yesterday for our under 16 team, unfortunately they lost 3-0 but werent helped by some interesting decisions by the ref, namely to send someone off for a "two footed" challenge but a great day none the less!

It's that time of year when I put the camera away and get the scanner back out. This winter I will be scanning some Excelsior of Bournemouth stuff from the late 1980s and early to mid 1990s. Here are some of the coaches seen at the Bournemouth depot in July 1991.
