The enchanting Rowan Tree, also known as Sorbus, is a beloved sight in Co Donegal, Ireland. Its vibrant berries are a feast for the eyes and the Eurasian bullfinch knows it well. With its striking red plumage, this male bird perches on a branch to indulge in the succulent Rowan berries. But it's not just the bullfinch that finds solace in these trees. The Common blackbird joins in on the feast, relishing every bite of the juicy Rowan berries found on the Sorbus aucuparia tree. Even Autumn leaves seem to dance around these young European Rowan trees as they grow gracefully. In Finland, during November's chilly embrace, Pine grosbeaks flock to devour the bountiful harvest of Rowan berries from their favorite Sorbus aucuparia tree. These bright red fruits provide nourishment and sustenance for these beautiful birds. Sorbus doesn't stop at just one species; there are more wonders to discover. The Wild service tree (Sorbus torminalis) stands tall with its elegant branches adorned by clusters of small fruits. Meanwhile, Sweet crabapple or garland crab (Malus coronaria) adds another layer of beauty with its delicate blossoms and delicious fruit. Let us not forget about False Medlar (Sorbus chamaemespilus), captured beautifully in Curtis British Entomology Plate 535 - a true work of art showcasing nature's intricate details. From Ireland to Finland and beyond, Sorbus captivates our hearts with its diverse range of species and their ability to sustain wildlife throughout different seasons. So next time you come across an European rowan tree or any member of this remarkable genus - take a moment to appreciate their contribution to our natural world.
