Tree for ID

[PeterD]

This tree is growing on the Langstone Harbour shore on Hayling Island.



The cones are here



Can anyone help please?

It's a pine, maybe Monterey or Red at a guess?

Hi Peter, I know this lovely group of trees well, (to me, Hayling is a botanist's paradise and was for many years almost my second home). And I'm pretty sure, as Hedera has suggested, that they are Monterey Pines - Pinus radiata, of which there are large numbers on the Island .
Lovely photo, (as always).

Thank you both.

I work on the Oysterbeds as a volunteer warden in the summer. I have grown to love this stretch of Langstone Harbour.
I walk around this site every week and send a picture post to the Hayling Island community website. I sign in as PeterD and here is the latest post of last week if you are interested.

Walk for week ending 27 February 2011

I cannot post here as all images must be in a Gallery and its just too much work.

Lovely pictures Peter, thanks for the 'link'.
