Nature: Tree Cutting

Sometimes, rarely, you have to destroy nature.
This tree was suffering from a disease that caused
it to slowly loose branches from the bottom upwards.
It was in my back yard (garden in the Queen's English).
It was sad to see the crew stuff it in a wood chipper.

couldn't you save the top for a Christmas Tree..?

Yes, it is sad to lose a tree but it may cause other trees problems if left. Maybe you can plant a new one?

Yes, it's so sad to see such a big tree being cut down, but when it's necessary we have to accept it. Well Nice captured Leo!

always sad to have a tree cut... do you have to replace the tree?

I hate to see trees being cut down. If I hear the sound of a chainsaw in the neighbourhood I have to leave! But sometimes it must be done.

Nature has it's way and nothing can stop it...at least it's chip will go one for a while.
