Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: Rowan

Photographed along the path in South Glenmore Park a couple of days ago. Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia) was introduced from Europe, N. Africa and Asia Minor. Also known as Dogberry, European Mountain-Ash and Rowan Tree. It's a very attractive tree, especially in the fall, when the leaves turn this beautiful colour and its berries are bright red. Unfortunately, it has spread into our natural areas. In the winter, the Bohemian Waxwings enjoy eating the berries.
