In 2006 the east woods and east field were kept more or less as mowed as the big field. The row of leafless black locust in the back is the east border woods, including the small eastern red cedar to the right. In front of the split cedar in the middle is a spruce that bushed out very nicely, but didn't make it much bigger than this and died a few years later.

Looks pretty sturdy to me, not in danger of either side falling over. Does need a serious trimming around the base of all the bush honeysuckle and a thorough check to see if there is any wintercreeper in there.
Boundary between east woods and east field
Looking west from the meeting of the east woods with the east field by the east border woods. Both of these areas have a lot of black locust coming up, as well as a number of other pioneer species, including more eastern red cedars. The mass of brush under the split cedar is almost exclusively bush oney suckle and poison ivy. In fact, thinking a bit about it, seems like the bush honeysuckle does prefer some shade. They don't seem to get very big out in the open sun.
