Rookery, St James's Churchyard, Chawleigh

The contorted branches of the trees (mainly beech)are topped by many rooks' nests. They are very noisy as they protest and gambol high in the air. One feels that this rookery has been here for a very long time. I was approached by a nearby resident as I took photos as she feared that I was some official whose photographs would presage the demise of these fine trees.
