There were loads of plane trees that had dropped their bark round my way. Never seen that before but apparently it's a way to conserve water! It looked pretty brutal, wouldn't fancy standing near one while big chunks of the outer layer fall off
Anyone else noticed it??
I've been seeing that too. Areas of dead grass with a covering of crunchy plane tree bark is becoming a common sight.
Lots of trees are also shedding leaves (and in a few cases small branches) to reduce transpiration and conserve water.
