My guess too.

Yes, you are right ;) It is new to me and I wonder if anybody has any experience with it?

Can't help really. I swore off it when they appeared in garden centres over here - saw too many Araucarias crammed into English front gardens as a lad.

Not many Wollemias here although there are some Araucarias ;) Some are really big too.

Not really a puzzle but when I was taking a picture of a badger yesterday in the field I noticed this in the woods.
Sorry not a good picture, I wasnt focusing on it.
Hope you can see it.

So is Jason Donovan, but he keeps popping up creating a song and a dance!

By the way - in the current financial debacle should Grecian 2000 be called Grecian 276,000,000 and would it keep one in the black?

Well there are some really wild things up in the Aberdeenshire area ;) so a bear looks feasable, (but not possible). I thought it also looks like a gorilla charging at the camera.
Quite clearly I have no idea.  Not really a puzzle Angela :-\ - well its puzzling me and the 24 other people that have looked at it so far.

A gorilla eh? I  hadn't thought of that... there are several local councillors who might fit the bill of a large hairy ape, but I understand gorillas to be rather sweet in the main, so I'd rule that out too.....

The only thing that gives me comfort is that it hasnt moved, probally just a bush but it just goes to show how you could make it into something.
If you don't hear from me, guess what  ;D

I was about to suggest it was the back end of a cow, Angie, but unlikely if you say it hasn't moved.  Have you been back to check it out? Is is the same wood you took me to when we went in search of native pine wood plants?
