Black birch. As in Birch beer and wintergreen taste whem chewing twigs

I informed them of the situation, the roof does sag in the middle, they are aware. Last thing I want is to step on it and go through it. There are gutters on one side and they are clean.

Some folks make beer out of that tree. Crushed twigs smell like wintergreen.

Some rot up there. Finally some decent weather.

We call this the depresso look

Good luck. What goes in should come out.

Thanks and HNY to you as well

If the vine is still alive, the oils will spread every time you cut and touch the cut area. It does not matter what season. I frequently climb and cut poison ivy covered trees/trunks but I do not wash my gear afterwards. It all depends on your level of reaction.

The amount and size of wood to move off site is a limiting factor for our equipment. There is so much quartering I am willing to do. This elm spar was still 30ft tall when I took this picture. Bigger companies can have big jobs. No shortage of trees in CT.

Latest job. It is reaching our limits but made for some good climbing.

Paw paw harvest of the day. Good eaten raw, as ice ice cream or in muffins. Tree is 5 years, old. Very little care.

2 tree peonies and one early herbaceous

Sorry Cory

2 healthy coyotes on our walk today. We heard them miles away as they were howling. They did not care for the dog and me.
