I found this Silver Birch in Longford park on a rather windy day. It is a slender, fast-growing decidious tree, with a narrow tapering crown. The leaves were not present at the time of my visit, however they can be expected to be up tp 7cm long, triangular and pointed.
Silver Birch timber is used quite popularly as firewood, and it is usually the case that the woodland surrounding Silver Birch is rich in fungi.
