The tree with a heart
A FULL house for Clitheroe Naturalists on a bitterly cold night was provided by Mr and Mrs,T. Lord, who showed slides of the oak tree in its yearly cycle. They also gave much infor
mation about the tree, includ ing the fact that it is host to over 200 different kinds of insects, and that last year was a poor one for acorns owing to the severe late frost on June 1st, which killed off most of the flowers. Their particular interest in
birds was reflected in some excellent slides of a wide vari ety of birds and their nests, and in this connection they made a plea to members not to feed nesting birds with huts - or fat, as the young birds cannot digest this type of food. Mrs Milne thanked Mr and
Mrs Lord for an enjoyable and educative lecture.
