Goat willow bushes in Glenlyon


Many of the broadleaved woods in Breadalbane have a high % of goat willow.......although it is very palatable, it also grows very quickly, and is a very effective pioneer species in wet upland areas such as this. Even in a very heavily browsed area, a number of such bushes seem to be continually becoming established. You can see the browse line on these particular bushes.
