I recognise that tree, we get it in England too. I think it's called Discus Complexus Vulgaris

Hahaha! Eileen - good one. They are starting to make our cell towers look tree like with branches and such...although I realize this is a microwave tower - not a cell.

Ah, technology. The good news...they didn't take out the real tree to build the microwave tree.

Well said Leelee.
I remember growing up as a child (yes CG, I can remember that far back) when all the lampposts and telegraph poles were timber, Each was marked with a stamp showing the type of tree and its ID number. One day, I had a blinding flash of the obvious and realised that what I was More...

But unfortunately, Ian, the steel and concrete also destroy trees. Hugs for the little boy!

LOL, Eileen

Well said, Eileen!

I grew up in South Australia and due to the lack of tall trees we had the stobie poles which are very unforgiving if you hit one with the car. Cheers everyone

There's still a lot of wooden power poles around here, Ian. One right outside on my verge. I hate to see trees cut down for whatever purpose, but sometimes I know it's a necessity. Timber furniture!!

Good name Eileen!! Sadly this type of tree is spreading like a weed. Interestng pic Ian!
