I've noticed how the wild Beech grow differently to their forestry cousins; the forestry Beech, managed and nurtured, often grow straight and tall, all bare trunks and canopy; whereas the wild ones grow how they please, thick, with boughs everywhere all covered in a dense thicket of leaves. There's something primeval about some of the wild trees you come across, be they Beech, Oak, Lime, Ash, whatever, you imagine the wild wood would have been populated with trees like these; what a wonder the wild wood must have been and how I'd like to be able explore it. I wish they'd hurry up and sort out time travel.
