They came toady and disappeared the cherry and halved the silver birch (or sil bir, maybe). The extra light into the garden is quite extraordinary

has cut it to what he said is a good length (two shafts, now about 3.5 ft high).
For free they trimmed the large pyrawotsit and the holly. Garden looks amazing

I'm pleased to hear your visit from the arborculturists went well. I have found that the birds are fairly laid back as long as some trees or part thereof are left for them to populate.

At 0815 this morning I found myself beneath an oak tree (don't ask). The little acorns are just at the stage of green peas.
Very pleasant to observe
