Ivy in the ascendant

Midday picture, New Year's Day 2017. Another exciting milestone image! An indication of climate change - in tropical regions lianas are becoming more prevalent and intrusive in forests; in temperate regions Ivy seems to be much more noticeable higher up in trees, although I do not know of any work to support that observation. If I am spared it will be interesting to see how the Ivy in these two trees develops over the next few years. Two earlier pictures show the Ivy nowhere near as high as this in 2010 NT2470 : Morningside skyline, or 2013 NT2470 : Snow on sycamore branches and roofs.
