SNIPPETS: Tree Tales
Ann Forbes is a Biologist, who studied Botany and Zoology at Kings College London and chose every course unit there which had a field trip. She has wandered in woods and fields since she was able to walk. Ann taught Biology (up to A level) for her entire working life, getting students into the fields, woods and ponds as much as possible. She was awarded an MBE in 2017 for services to education in the UK and in Uganda, and is now retired but still walking, watching and learning (and writing).
If you would like to read more, Ann suggests SILVA by Archie Miles. In fact any of his tree books are interesting.
