(4/5) It’s also a very rare example of a veteran tree in #NorthernIreland .
With just 8.7% #woodland cover, Northern Ireland is one of the least-wooded regions in Europe.
That's why we were so excited to open #MournePark to the public this year: bit.ly/3T5JFIY

A lady Sabre Wasp prospecting around a huge fallen tree trunk for beetle larvae to lay eggs in at the newly open Woodland Trust #MournePark site today. That's an ovipositor, not a sting, on the end.

Autumn is officially my favourite time of year in #MournePark . Lovely day on Wednesday for making willow 'pegs' to be planted later in the year. It was so nice we couldn't resist going for a walk along the Whitewater. Woodland Trust🌳 #WTNorthernIreland
