Bonaly sits on the north western edge of Pentland Hills Country park.
The young tree saplings have been planted in clear, protective shelters to protect them from rodents, etc. who like the fresh, young bark on trees.
While the area is establishing it may just appear to be a group of tiny trees in plastic tubes stuck in the ground. However, within a few years the trees will have grown to around 3 times the height of the shelters and be established enough that the shelters can be removed.
