These trees, on Dukes Avenue, were heavily pollarded earlier in the year and I was worried about the timing and the severity of the work so I am pleased to see that the trees have sprouted some leaves. Currently the leaf to branch ratio looks wrong but I hope that this will improve in subsequent years. And then they will need to be pollarded again.
Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (at the meeting of Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames in south-west London), where I have lived since 1996. It captures the small changes that are easily missed and delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

Recovering trees
