I was out for a walk and noticed this tree in the neighbourhood being removed. It's a large tree and I thought it was against the law these days. I asked the guys who were cutting it down and they said the people had a permit because it was a hazard. He said 'don't worry they can always plant another one and it will grow back in a few years'. I don't think so, let's hope the other trees on that street get to stay!
The neatest thing to watch was the tree shredder they had. They would feed large branches into it and it would quickly chop it into bits sort of like when you put things into a food processor!

Pity about the tree. But I love watching those shredders, too! Valerie
It is sad that when planting that tree too close to the home, they didn't think of the result in the future.
They did a similar thing a few years ago when the trees kept falling over and knocking out power lines
Bet that tree shredder was loud! At least they can replant it, better that then it fall and destroy someones home.
Although big trees are lovely to look at, they can be dangerous. Last week, a couple sued the owner because a large branch had fallen on them and injured them in Waikiki.
Whao...neat tree shredder......woould love to watch that...
so sad I love trees!
Ottawa had some issues with trees being cut for development. You'd think we'd learn!
