Just before Christmas, the loggers were out in our local woods. Amongst many other trees, they took out quite a number of redwoods. You can clearly see, here, why they're called redwoods. Sadly, the woods now look a complete mess, but luckily, these redwoods behave like coppice and will regrow from their stumps.

Across the lane from us there used to be about 40 acres of dense woodland, now there's almost nothing but lumber...
[See how it looked just a few weeks ago in my reply to this post.]

It's National Tree Week in the UK and, to mark the occasion, here's a photo of Wistman's Wood - a well-known remnant of Britain's, once-abundant, temperate rainforest. These stunted and twisted trees, growing amidst boulders, are one of the highest oakwoods in Britain.
The photo is from this time of year, but a few years ago - before we were being discouraged from walking amongst them. There's a location shot in my reply to this post.
