A quite knackered Beech fell from today. Only 50ish foot high so done by 2pm:thumbup1: Timber was going to be made into some benches and the rest was left for firewood.

Some pics I keep meaning to pit up! These are very mature cherry which we were asked to sympathetically lift thin and reduce. We went back to take pics when in blossom.

A few from a recent bush bash. Not brilliant photos I'm afraid as it was pretty dark under the tree cover and the bush was reasonably thick. The first few are of a large Totara, 600 plus years old, approx 2.5 - 3m through the base and I figure, from what I can see, at least 30 - 35m tall. There's also a couple of Kahikatea and either Matai or Miro, all about the same height, diameter and age in the vicinity. How they didn't get felled I have no idea. Apparenntly, over 35m for a Totara is exceptional so to have one on the back doorstep is pretty cool. Believe it or not it's only protected under the bush reserves for council rather than a significant tree. One day I may get to climb the thing and measure it accurately unless someone wants to volunteer......Drew?
