Inspired by the call for more visibility of forest managers from the #ICF conference. I'm trying something new over on the dreaded tiktok. Let me know what subjects I should cover next?

Inspired artwork or pipedream? I got to try my hand this week at making a pitch for integrated land management to a bunch of colleagues - think I came away with a few coniferous converts!!

Great day to be out yesterday, inspecting a young woodland which turned out to be showing signs of heavy Elatobium defoliation. Wondering how much more prevalent damage is going to be in future especially with warm dry Spring weather like this. Watching @forestresearchuk.bsky.social studies closely

I've been busy! This is part of a 100ha #woodland creation scheme I've been working on, up at the Ford & Etal Estate in Northumberland. #trees #forestry #UK

Great to finally be here, although feels a bit daunting starting all from scratch! Can anyone recommend how to find people you were following before, in the Old Place? This mornings' #tree view from Hadrians Wall, #Northumberland
