| This is an appalling time of year to be doing major pruning works. What sort of trees are they? I notice that on Chiswick Back Common, Hounslow are replacing all the poplars which are coming to the end of their life with Plane trees. To begin with do you see any birds nesting in the Plane trees - no but the poplars are full of small birds like starlings, tits, robins, blackbirds, etc. The leaves of the Plane trees are dreadful in the autumn as they do not break down, not good on the compost front and drift into huge pile. I wish you luck with your complaint. |
