mingling in small groups, an evening in early spring in the frozen wetlands of Färnebofjärden.../ Björkar minglar i små grupper, vårvinter i Färnebofjärden, ett isigt älvlandskap.../Abedules haciendo vida social, tal vez platicando en pequeños grupos, una tarde a comienzos de primavera en los humidales congelados de Färnebofjärden...(DSC_3259-2)

The Birch Tree, with its trunk covered in thin, smooth white bark, stands out among the bare trees in the Spring forest.
Happy Earth Day!!

A young Yellow Birch tree (Betula alleghaniensis), native to north-eastern North America and dwarfed by Larch tree hybrids (Larix x marschlinsii), has a lot to catch-up as it can grow up to 80 feet. It’s got its common name not from this spectacular yellow autumnal dress but from the golden colour of its bark. Locally it is also known as Golden Birch, Swamp Birch. The tall and elegant larches framing the birch are hybrids of European larch (L. decidua) and Japanese larch (L. kaempferi) that could occur spontaneously if the two species grow in close proximity. Not sure if this is what had happened here, or the hybrids were planted already as hybrids. These Larch hybrids were first discovered on the grounds of the Dunkeld Estate and Cathedral in Perthshire, Scotland at the turn of the 20th century, hence their common name, the Dunkeld larch. Taken in Silk Wood, Westonbirt Arboretum. Westonbirt near Tetbury, South Gloucestershire, England, UK.
