Veneer grade timber for the future and stunning autumn colour - more people should plant hybrid walnut. This one ‘NG23’, high-pruned by me in four lifts to 6m. #forestry #silviculture #hardwoods #walnut #autumn

Ecologists’ horror as nature reserves around the world are emptied of insects - with rising temperatures joining habitat destruction as likely causes:

‘Half the tree of life’: ecologists’ horror as nature reserves are emptied of insects
A new point in history has been reached, entomologists say, as climate-led species’ collapse moves up the food chain even in supposedly protected regions free of pesticides

Bumble bees and honey bees are enjoying the creamy white flowers of black locust Robinia pseudoacacia while it grows some fantastic durable timber for future human society. Filmed at @sylva.org.uk Wood C #wildlife #bees #trees #timber

Delighted to lead this important research with @sylva.org.uk and @forestresearchuk.bsky.social exploring how private land managers perceive public access in their woodlands. #publicaccess #recreation #woodlands #countryside
Today we publish the report of the BWS2004 exploring views among private land managers to #public access in #woodlands, in collaboration with @forestresearchuk.bsky.social. c.500 respondents took part, responsible for 56% of privately-owned woodland area in Britain. www.sylva.org.uk/bws #research

Makes me feel a little old (!), but great to see a woodland I designed and planted 30 years ago really coming into its own. Wild pear, blackthorn and wild cherry in blossom. Small-leaved lime, whitebeam and field maple leafing. Hybrid larch towering. #forestry #woodland #trees #landscape

A huge thanks to @nationaltrust.org.uk supporting my book research for The Forest Guides England and Wales, published with @chiffchat.bsky.social @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social I recently visited Ebworth in the Cotswolds, donating a signed copy of the Wales edition for its new Woodland Library.

Honoured to have delivered The Osmond Lecture at King’s Ely school today. Hopefully inspired some bright minds to consider forestry - the noblest of professions - as a career. Even if not, to embrace nature in all they do in future.

Also to meet England’s oldest plane tree (1674).
