Looking through nearby foliage to the lot which has been raized by machinery...
This is what it looked like before...
Some of the biggest old oaks were on that property.
If you look to the far edge of the gravel, there is a man and a bobcat at the dropoff.

It's hard to see that at the far edge of the gravel, the dropoff is about 10 feet, then gradual to the far trees. Most of those are bamboo, which perhaps belong on the far home's property. This lot used to be full of trees and undergrowth, all razed now.
On Tuesday all the noise was coming from the two (blue at this point) houses on the next street over.

Bravery can never be measured by a lack of fear. It takes guts to tremble. It takes so much tremble to love. |

Hello,
ReplyDeleteNew houses are going up everywhere. It is sad they take down so many trees. I hope they replant some trees around the new homes. Take care, enjoy your day!
We have a real housing shortage right now, mainly needing affordable rentals for the very many service people who keep things running. So at this point, some restaurants just close if they don't have enough servers.
DeleteAlways a sad sight.
ReplyDeleteI didn't used to feel this sadness when trees are just cut for a new home. But now I do!
DeleteChange is hard. Sad to see trees come down.
ReplyDeleteIt is difficult to see trees that are over 50 years old falling to a chain saw.
DeleteThe trees are a welcome sight. New development is not.
ReplyDeleteOur little woods areas are becoming fewer and fewer...and that means the poor black bears don't have their natural habitat either.
DeleteYes, it does look like new houses will be built there. Makes me wonder if someday all the trees everywhere will be gone.
ReplyDeleteOh that's a terrible thought. I love the trees. I'd really be upset if there were no more trees.
Delete...development is hard to stop.
ReplyDeleteYes, we do need housing. I guess I just wish that a huge old tree or two could have been kept somehow.
DeleteVandalism
ReplyDeleteIt does feel like that.
DeleteSad!
