Bit like being English & living it Wales then, they see it as our fault if they vandalise our property.

Last pics are looking good:)

gosh amazing trees but here in VA sad to say all they do is cut the forest down to make lumber and leave the mess behind .They cut some of the trees on my land by so called accident and lucky i came home when i did or they would have cut more of them down .They were supposed to forest the neighbor behind me and all my trees were clearly marked not to touch them and they still did .They went right through the middle

Maybe it's a little silly but it really pains me when I hear about trees being cut. It's heartbreaking. I love trees so much and it takes so much time to grow one:( . Trees are one of the most beautiful things in this world.

Wow, Tmann, this tree is giant - and so beautiful!
Here is a picture of an amazing Bothorpe oak - it's over 1,000 years old:

I love that pub in a tree. That is so cool! I wish I could run a small business from inside of a tree, like an elf. It's adorable that there's a flat screen TV inside the tree.

This is a wonderful thread:D . I love tress and ancient trees are the most fascinating. This is one of the oldest trees in Poland:

This is a heck of a tree (all the ones posted in this thread are fantastic) with a lot of history I'm sure. If these trees could talk, oh what a story they would tell. Of course, if the tree above was in someone's backyard, it would have been climbed thousands of times, over the decades, by every generation that lived near it.
