JDog Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 In the winter, if anyone is wondering where all of the pigeons have gone, look no further. It has been an exceptional year for Beech trees flowering and the fruits are just showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeds are doing very well but trees are not growing as well as they should, a very odd year ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigeon controller Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 I have an Oak and an Ash across the road who have about ten percent of leaves and the Ash is zero . They have posted notices from the council that the Oak will be felled. I also have a Ash at the bottom of my garden about sixty feet not a leaf on it.

I was as well in another life time 4th generation, anyway I would say after last year's hot summer trees will try and reproduce as they were probably stressed.

I am 3rd generation and next year will our centenary. I have come to the same conclusion, that trees when stressed go into panic mode.
