Memory of our trees: Sycamore & Ash

There used to be two big trees between the fence of our neighbour's and ours.  Until just a few months ago.  

We have talked about concern of the overgrown trees over the roof of both of us for years.  Then at last, the chance came round in the early spring.
( If you don't know, please see my 'Tree Diary' on 15. April 2013.)

I really wanted to make a nice memory of trees for our next door neighbours, who have been the first to greet us when we moved into our house more than ten years ago and been always so friendly and gave hands for help whenever we needed.  Sadly the couple are going to move out because of downsizing of their family.

Sycamore (left) is on our neighbours' side, and ash is on our side.  The squirrel family has nestled somewhere near by and they run around our house.  They are running around outside, climbing up trees, jumping over from a branch to another branch.  The bird box has been at our ash tree still there (please see the photo on the previous diary) for our regular guests, blue tits, in the spring.
