Conservation area

Hi all,

 

I give up my time once a month to volunteer in a conservation / wildlife reserve, i fell trees large and small, prune trees, and advise commitee on tree issues as and when required. We discussed two Ash trees at the last meeting and it was agreed to monitor these trees regularly, they are covered with Ivy and there is evidence of Innotus hispidus,we suspect there may be bats roosting in these trees too. Since this meeting a volunteer has taken it upon himself to vandalise these trees with a new toy of his, please feel free to comment :cursing:

Shocking!

Good start to a very nice fracture-pruning cut. When's he going to finish it off?

A volunteer did that? I would have expected better.

Suggest you report your feelings on the matter at the next committee meeting. Provide a physical report setting out the issues which can then be minuted and recommend that the volunteer is put on latrine duties for the rest of his/her life.

Sack the volunteer. Tell him never to come anywhere near the site again. People like that are dangerous.

Looks like a strong enough point to string him up by his legs and let him dangle there til he sees the error of his ways. What a cluts!

Torn down through the main collar as well hasn't it on the right hand side? Nice work!

Awful! If there are bats there, they'll be in their winter roost and if the bat conservation poeple get involved there could be a whole heap of issues. Make sure your views and concerns about this work are clearly minuted!
