This tree fell toward the soujthern boundary, short by only a few feet.
There are no super old trees in here, most are either in the 40 to 100 year rane, and then a bunch of smaller ones younger than 15. My guess is that cattle wandered through here freely around 30 or 40 years ago, Very little of the native undergrowth is back.
The downhill half of this double trunk tree fell 2 years ago. When the wind blew the other trunk, there were sounds. Looks like the wind finally put the other trunk down.

When the wind moves the canopy part of this tree, the part that fell down rubs and makes various strange sounds. Sometimes like a kind of drum, sometimes more like a groan. Plenty of fungi growing on the trunk. I expect the other half will come down in the next year or two.
