Song Thrush
The song thrush is a familiar garden visitor that has a beautiful and loud song.
It is smaller and browner than a mistle thrush with smaller spotting.
Its habit of repeating song phrases distinguish it from singing blackbirds.

Happy Summer Solstice! In the Northern Hemisphere,

Happy Summer Solstice!
In the Northern Hemisphere, the June solstice (aka summer solstice) occurs when the Sun reaches its highest and northernmost points in the sky.
It marks the start of summer in the northern half of the globe.
The word “solstice” comes from Latin solstitium—from sol (Sun) and stitium (still or stopped).

This week we would like to introduce you to our wonderful Wingnut tree (Pterocarya x rehderiana)

Large and fast-growing, often with a short trunk and broad crown. Grey, ridged bark. Dark green, pinnate leaves turning yellow. Tiny-flowered catkins followed by nutlet strings.

This species comes from the Caucasus Mountains and northern Iran and was introduced to Britain in 1782

Can you find this tree in Bute Park?
