Tree / Timber Identification

A couple of good photo's of the winter twigs would help. I have a great guide to identification "The Field Guide to Winter Twigs" by John Polard.

I'm glad others find trees as confusing as i do. I spend quite alot of time trying to learn and identify trees, but even in summer it is often quite difficult!

Yes it would be nice to be able to identify any tree. I noticed these yesterday...

I think it is definitely goat willow

Yup! Salix Caprea. The flowers are a very important source of food for bumble bees when they wake up in spring.
