saying good bye to a tree

To care is a good thing.

If we do not care we (or our children) will have no future to care about.

There is more to life than creating a tree stump. This unfortunately now seems to be the public perception of a Tree Surgeon, roll on Arboriculture and public education.

That quote in your signature is pretty good.

 

Squish, was that you hitting me in the emoticon?

Just spent an afternoon removing some major ivy from a LA Oak. I've walked past this tree every day for 6 months and I decided enough is enough!

 

Only took a couple of hours with a silky. I previously cut the bases a couple of weeks ago.

 

my wife thinks i'm mad as it doesn't belong to me or even a paying customer. As far as I'm concerned its everybodys tree!

a forester once said to me david before you fell a tree give it a moment to thank it for its life 2 0r 3 hundred years is a long life. and one tree supplys oxygen for 18 people for one year fact theres a tree in my garden haha.:001_cool:

 

Talking to trees? Yep, guilty. Generally i ask the tree to be nice to me and not break at my anchor point. I apologies for any discomfort. A superstition born out of fear i think. I don't do it to all trees, just the old dodgy ones.
