This is the second tree in 3 months that has fallen across the busy A6 between Cromford & Matlock. I think this one maybe a cedar ( with hidden disease)? @bertolicus.bsky.social @forestresearchuk.bsky.social @wtscotsocial.bsky.social #observatree

Three people lean over a desk covered with photos of different tree pests and diseases. They are smiling and look interested in the photos.

Could someone ( maybe Matt as I don't know which other #observatree staff are on Bluesky) suggest we include the link to the podcast on healthy forests to the next newsletter? Thanks #Branchingout

Several hundred aphids crowding together on a pine branch. Credit WTML
Interesting find from one of our #Observatree volunteers in the #Cairngorms 🦟
We're waiting on confirmation but suspect these are Greater black spruce bark aphids (Cinara picaea), a species that has only been recorded in Scotland near Edinburgh and Orkney. And quite the crowd of them too! 😮

Please help us record ash dieback-tolerant trees in Scotland! It's estimated up to 75% of our ash trees will be gone in 20 years ☹️. Thankfully some show a natural tolerance to the disease. We need #Volunteers to find & record these valuable trees from July.🙏
