3 things gardeners need to do when an olive tree sheds its leaves & it'll grow back healthier and bigger afterwards
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE fluctuating UK temperatures may be leaving your olive tree looking a little worse for wear. However, following these three tips can help to revitalise your plant, leaving it even bigger and healthier than before. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Gardening fans shared their top tips for boosting your wilted olive tree this summer (stock image) Credit: Getty One green-fingered enthusiast shared their concerns over their olive tree in the Facebook group Gardening On A Budget Official. "Why are my olive trees losing their leaves?" the poster asked their fellow gardening fans. The comments section was filled with a wide variety of advice, however the same three suggestions popped up repeatedly. Gardener tips First, gardeners recommended popping your olive tree in the shade, if possible. Whether this involves strategically planning out your garden set-up or simply dragging a pot from one are to another, this step can make all the difference in your tree's health. Next, you should focus on watering your olive tree well, making sure your plants have sufficient drainage. Avoid under or overwatering the plant, as this can also lead to issues from leaves to roots. The final piece of advice is slightly more unusual, however gardening pros swear by it. They suggest giving your olive tree tomato feed to help nourish the plant. This is particularly handy when your olive tree is growing in a container. Wake up to a weed-free lawn for months thanks to Aldi's £10 gadget that pulls them out without bending or kneeling down If your plant needs a boost during the growing season, use this tonic as a supplementary feed. Olive tree While olive trees are relatively low maintenance, tolerating poor soil conditions and infrequent watering, it is important to help them where you can. Insufficient sunlight, improper watering, and lack of nutrients are the main reasons for poor growing conditions. This backs up the three gardening tips as the best course of action to take when it comes to your plants. Following these steps can not only save your olive tree, it may leave them looking bigger and healthier than ever.

Large bird that was hunted into extinction makes return to Scotland after 500 YEARS
It is described as 'one of the great modern conservation success stories' TAKING FLIGHT Large bird that was hunted into extinction makes return to Scotland after 500 YEARS Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A LARGE bird that was hunted into extinction is making a return to Scotland after 500 years. Cranes were once very common across the country, but disappeared in the Elizabethan era. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Cranes disappeared in the Elizabethan era around 400 years ago Credit: Alamy But Scotland's tallest birds are now making a comeback, with the number of species reaching a record-breaking high. The RSPB says the total UK population is now in excess of 250 breeding pairs. In Aberdeenshire, up to six breeding pairs have been recorded. It follows efforts by reserve teams and volunteers to restore and protect precious wetland habitats. The RSPB says over 80 per cent of the breeding population of Cranes are now found on protected sites. Standing at 1.2m high, the elegant birds are known for their "courtship dance" involving head bobbing, bowing and pirouetting. RSPB volunteer Ron Macdonald told STV News: "In 2012, we saw the first nesting pair recorded and since then we've seen around six or seven pairs in the north east. "The birds are doing particularly well in northern and eastern Europe, and they're now seeking out other sites with good food supplies where they can live. "I think it's one of the few good news stories around, because we see so many species in decline. "I think in recent years there's been a good partnership between farmers and conservation projects, and our government also has more policies for nature restoration, particularly when it comes to wetland and bog creation." RSPB share footage of partakers Big Garden Birdwatch James Silvey, Senior Species and Habitats Officer for RSPB Scotland, described the return of cranes as "one of the great modern conservation success stories". He added: "Cranes are still a very rare breeder in Scotland preferring quiet areas to raise their chicks. "Hopefully with time Cranes will become more common across our wetlands allowing more people to see these magnificent birds."

Air India pilot's mental health probed and medical records seized after fuel turned off in cockpit killing 260
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CRASH investigators are said to be investigating the medical records of the doomed Air India flight Captain amid claims he suffered from mental health problems. Preliminary report into the fatal crash found the plane's fuel switches were cut off, which led to a catastrophic loss of thrust during the initial take-off. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 10 Captain Sumeet Sabharwal was the lead pilot in the doomed Air India flight 10 Officials inspect the remains of the Air India passenger plane at the crash site near Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad Credit: EPA 10 One of the rear landing gears amid debris at the site of a plane crash Credit: EPA 10 The plane seconds before disaster Credit: X The Air India flight bound to London Gatwick was led by Captain Sumeet Sabharwal, who was reportedly just months away from retirement. But the pilot had been considering leaving the airlines early to look after his elderly father, The Telegraph revealed. A leading aviation expert in India told the media outlet that Captain Sabharwal reportedly suffered from mental health issues and depression - and had taken time off in the last few years following his mum's death. Captain Mohan Ranganathan, a former instructor pilot of Boeing 737, said: "I have heard from several Air India pilots who told me he had some depression and mental health issues. "He had taken time off from flying in the last three to four years." Although Mr Ranganathan added that Captain Sabharwal "must have been medically cleared by the company [Air India] doctors" before flying. He is understood to have taken a Class I medical exam on September 5 last year. Investigators are now said to be probing his medical records after the preliminary crash report indicated there may have been human error, although some aviation experts claim it is a case of deliberate action. Sources said the black box analysis has so far been unable to rule out 'improper, inadvertent or intentional' action that caused them to be flipped. Families of the victims who tragically died in the crash have slammed the preliminary report as a cover-up. Second-by-second breakdown of Air India jet disaster from mayday call to horror crash – all within a minute of takeoff They have dubbed the investigation "biased" and said it only appears to "blame the dead pilots". The Airline Pilots' Association of India (APAI) rejected the 'tone and direction' of the inquiry and said it came without sufficient evidence. However, India's Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu said that investigators probed in a "mature, transparent" way. "This is a preliminary report. We want the final report to come in, so let us wait for it," he added. Early findings in the 15-page report released by the Indian authorities indicate switches to the engines' fuel supplies were moved from the "RUN" position to "CUTOFF". The fuel switches were then toggled to the "RUN" position, and the engines appeared to be gathering power, but failed to stop the plane from decelerating. Key findings of the report: Dual engine shutdown - fuel cutoff switches moved from 'RUN' to 'CUTOFF' - fuel cutoff switches moved from 'RUN' to 'CUTOFF' Confusion between pilots - cockpit audio confirms one pilot asked 'why did you cutoff', the other replied 'I didn't' - cockpit audio confirms one pilot asked 'why did you cutoff', the other replied 'I didn't' RAT deployed - as seen in CCTV footage before the crash - as seen in CCTV footage before the crash Engine relight attempted - fuel switches were found returned to the "RUN" at crash site - fuel switches were found returned to the "RUN" at crash site 32 seconds - the time the aircraft was airborne before it crashed the time the aircraft was airborne before it crashed Thrust levers mismatch - Thrust levers found at idle but black box data shows takeoff thrust was still engaged - Thrust levers found at idle but black box data shows takeoff thrust was still engaged Fuel test pass - fuel was clean without any contamination - fuel was clean without any contamination Normal take-off set-up - Flaps and landing gear correctly configured - Flaps and landing gear correctly configured No bird activity - clear skies, good visibility, light winds - clear skies, good visibility, light winds Pilot credentials clear - both medically fit and rested - both medically fit and rested No sabotage detected - although FAA alerted over a known fuel switch vulnerability not checked by Air India - although FAA alerted over a known fuel switch vulnerability not checked by Air India Aircraft loading - the flight was within weight and balance limits Analysis of the cockpit voice recording revealed that one of the pilots asked: 'Why did you cut off?" To which the other pilot replied: 'I didn't." Though the report does not identify which comments were made by the flight's captain and which were made by the first officer. Nor does it "identify the cause - whether it was crew error, mechanical malfunction, or electronic failure." Flipping the switches to cut off almost immediately cuts the fuel supply to the engines. It is most often used to turn engines off once a plane has arrived at its airport gate and in certain emergency situations, such as an engine fire. But the inconclusive report, which came after 30 days of the crash, does not indicate that the flight encountered any such emergency situation. 10 A cockpit view of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft shows the fuel switch; Annotations by The Sun Graphics Credit: Getty 10 Clive Kunder was the co-pilot on the doomed fligh Credit: Getty 10 Rear end of the aircraft after it crashed into a medical hostel It is almost impossible to turn the switches off accidentally - they must be pulled up and locked before flipping - a safety design feature that was introduced decades ago. Protective guards are further installed to minimise the risks - raising further questions as to why the fuel switches in the Air India flight were turned off. The report points out that the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in 2018 issued a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) - highlighting that a few Boeing 737 fuel control switches were installed with the locking feature disengaged. But it was not deemed unsafe, and no Airworthiness Directive (AD) - a legally enforceable regulation to correct unsafe conditions in a product - was issued. A similar switch design is used in Boeing 787-8 aircraft, including Air India's VT-ANB Dreamliner in question. 10 The FAA and Boeing have now privately issued notifications that the fuel switch locks on Boeing planes are safe, according to four sources and a document seen by Reuters. The report said Air India had said it had not carried out the FAA's suggested inspections, as the FAA 2018 advisory was not a legal mandate. But it also said maintenance records showed that the throttle control module, which includes the fuel switches, was replaced in 2019 and 2023 on the plane involved in the crash. Experts have said a pilot would not be able to accidentally move the fuel switches. "If they were moved because of a pilot, why?" asked U.S. aviation safety expert Anthony Brickhouse. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner with 242 passengers on board - including 53 Brits - smashed into a doctors' hostel in Ahmedabad in the west of India. The plane was headed to London Gatwick when it crashed just seconds after take-off, killing all but one passenger. 10 Landing gear of the Air India plane crashed directly on the BJ Medical College UG hostel mess Credit: x/mitrapredator
