Among the fierce storms of recent weeks I've made the most of the odd day of sunshine, donning my wellies and setting off up the lane to take a good look at the differences between trees in winter. The largest oak (above) has untidy looking wiggly branches and twigs, and dark, grooved bark, while the sycamore bark is smoother and branches gently curve giving a more rounded silhouette.
The ash (below) has a windswept look even on a still day, and grey tinted bark.
