A YouTube Guide to Trees

Today I posted the latest in a small sub-series about trees.

The videos - part of the bigger Test Tube video project - are presented by Dr Markus Eichhorn.

Here's today's video about the sycamore:



And here is the whole series so far, embedded as a player:



The videos were all filmed in a single afternoon with Markus, and I edit and upload when I have the time.

But I really like them and hope we might film more (because I am running out of videos from our original shoot).

The Secrets of Trees

I've started a new short series within Test Tube all about trees.

Links to all the videos will be posted at test-tube.org.uk/trees

The videos feature ecologist Dr Markus Eichhorn and I've found he's quite good and discussing a mixture of things - the science, history and trivia of each species.

The first video we've posted is this one about elms.



Next week is a really good one about oak trees, so watch out for that.

We went out earlier this week and filmed about 10 types of tree and I found them all quite fascinating.

Good ways to follow the series is subscribe to the nottinghamscience YouTube channel or follow me on Twitter.
