todays mystery object
This one's got me beat.
http://website.lineone.net/~rodcraddock/wotsthis.jpg There's a lot of these on the ground in the Camellia Walk thinly distributed over an area roughly circular around 3 - 5 metres dia. The concentration would indicate a source nearby and they look like they've blown off a tree but I can't find the tree. Over and around these objects are mature Oaks, Ash, Sycamore, Beech, Douglas Fir, Cedrus deodora. Can't see any Birches or Willow nearby and not much of an understory. If I had an idea what they were I could refine my search. Whoever gets this right will have the reward of seeing me looking pretty damn silly.

Trouble is it's a very tall leggy specimen with just a bit of foliage high amongst the mature Oaks so very difficult to see anything clearly. In fact it's such a poor specimen that when we found it during the making of the Camellia Walk a few years back it took me a while even to recognise it as a C. deodora. Thanks for the link, looks like it's worth digging deeper into that site. Rod Weed my address to reply http://website.lineone.net/~rodcraddock/index.html |
