Colossus (because everything deserves a name)

I went on a reccy this afternoon, looking for oak trees in the area where social housing is planned. I only found one I didn’t know about, but it is in a relatively safe position. There are some nice copper beeches so I hope they keep them.  I trekked back to Colossus, the mummy and daddy of all oak trees. I’d love to know how old this huge tree is. I wish s/he could speak. Colossus is just outside the proposed development area. His/her’s neat trick has been to flourish  beside a small burn or brook. Water on tap! How cool is that?
Extra: Under Colossus's canopy. Extra extra: A young oak.
