A black locust top fell on a hackberry that had grown up next to it. This is one of those proceed with lots of caution. So yesterday we moved the fencing out of the way and today did an much brush removal, including another smaller tree that had fallen also.

Interesting post processing result
The Lightroom panorama tool did some interesting things to the set of images submitted.

forest scenery
This image makes the forst appear a lot more open due to large amounds of sun falling on the open area around the lower pond. and lots of puffy white clouds overhead. the path here features a spece bush up close and a bunch more of them as the pathe tuns to the left up ahead. This path needs some water diversion before it gets down this far. And perhaps this section of path needs to be re build so it doe snot make a nicee water runoff channel. Need to slow and keep the wate upstream from here.
first white bloom in this woods is apple
At least close up inspection and scent says apple to me. Have never seen fruit, and down here under the canopy, probably won't ever see any. But birds and bees probably enjoy the blossoms.

down branches and a widow maker
The branch sticking up in the middle is buried a good 6 inches into the ground. If a husband had been out working in the forest when this came down, it could well have been a widow maker.

The big ash on the right reaches up above to form the upper canopy, while the sugar maples are mostly below them.

First appearence of May apples in the central forest area; up till this spring they'd only been coming up in the SW forest on the other side of the lower pond.
Looks like honey locust thorns on the yellow sapling.
Most of the large bush honeysuckle were cut back, but not poisoned or dug up so they are coming back. I think perhaps get rid of the forsythia and replace with native something. Maybe leave the big cedar, but take out the smaller ones and replace with pines. Already have some native bushes put in last year, but will add some more this year. Maybe replace the picnic table this year, too. And empty and haul out the canoe...
