Conifer

This tree is in a garden at the bottom of next doors, but its so big some time i wont it down, but then it is also teaming with wildlife, everything peacful in it till the magpies come and upset all of them, then its like world war 3 in it.

Does it cast a lot of shade in your garden Clarice? It looks a bit dark.

I remember you showing this before, Clarice. Did you take any steps to get its height reduced? Difficult, isn't it, when you know its used by birds for nesting and shelter. There is a conifer opposite me that the doves and pigeons use all year round.

I can tell by the height of your hedge that its one big tree Clarice, it must cast a big shadow across your garden. I must say I wouldn`t like it either.

It does does stop some sun coming in the garden in the evening as my garden is west facing and as the sun moves from south to west then loose a bit of sun for a while, did try to get council to sort it out, but one said they would get who ever own it to cut it down or cut to reasonable size, then i rang a few months later and another council worker told me they could do nothing about it, and i would have to see a solicitor, but the best bit is the tree is at bottom of a next doors garden and he accually works for the council,and as a white collar job with them, when i ask him to help, he just says when he does the bottom of his garden he will start to complain to the folks who own the tree, Gee there is loads of differant birds in it, think thats why they dont use my nest boxes as they have a good tree to live in. Like Sandra says when your stood in my garden it looks massive, infact it is.
