De 24th Mistletoe for Christmas and tons of it. This is a beech tree nearby with at least 20 clumps of mistletoe on it. Whilst we see a lot of mistletoe on the apple orchards, (where the mistlle thrush wipes its beak after eating berries on the apple tree) I was surprised to see quite so many growths on the beech tree, I'm told the large ones have already been taken for Christmasr
