More granite

La Sierra de La Cabrera. My favourite Mushroom Rock can be seen from here but only the cap; the stalk is hidden. Can you see it? Clue: it's on the horizon.

A wonderful scene.................I love the granite boulders, but I also like the trees that are dotted around, especially the larger one just left of centre. Any idea what they are Andy?

Thank you, Keith.
Looks like a chestnut to me. Mainly you get holm oak here, sometimes the occasional majestic deciduous Pyrennean oak, but all these oaks are succumbing to longhorn beetle, sadly. Ash, poplar and birch can also be found in these mountains.

Thanks Andy..............quite a decent selection considering the amount of granite around! I've not heard of Longhorn Beetle being a particular pest for Oak trees in Britain (yet).

I forgot to mention Scots Pine. There are a few impressive specimens.
