photographs needed for some trees of Uttrakhand forest depratment: I am helping forest dept of Uttrakhand in putting together a field guide for nature guides from community to increase opportunities for community livelihoods program under sub dept of eco-tourism. Since this is a non profit program to augment the income of community guides hence I request you all to look into your database and pull put out some photographs of trees. Phot credits willl be given hence do let me know your first name and last name with contact details.
I require pics that are clues to identifying trees like bark of ” Amaltas/Indian laburnum ” is very light and yellowish in colour. hence picture of flowers and bark is good clue in identifying tree in field. 2 pictures per tree is sufficient unless some other part of tree really helps in identifying it.
