12.11 north east woods

This is the property line jag that includes an area that is more accessable from the neighbour's place. I planted a row of trees, tulip poplar being the big ones, but interspersed underneath a bunch of redbud and dogwood. Also some pines, christmas tree types. Poison ivy loves this area. This is where the 27 feet of highway frontage is, and there I've put some decorative plants.

rescue this sycamore?
I wonder if this sycamore will make it, bent as it is. Should it remain? What will it do to the drain that goes under the driveway at this point?
Afternoon sun only
This section at the north east end of the north east field will be dominated by walnut; on the edge across the open space is an asian pear that isn't bearing and a tangle of bush honeysuckle and downed trees.
North east woods
This small patch of trees features one very old and big one along with another dozen or so guys planted along with lots of poison ivy.

north east end of north east field
The drainage ditch alongside the driveway crosses under the driveway at this point, making a good place to be the top end of the the north east field.

visiting cat hiding in the bushes -- except to my eyes very obviously white. My cat Oliver came over, smelled something, but apparently couldn't see the other cat.

Coming down to check out what I'm doing. Saw the white cat in the bushes, but didn't do anything.
