This is one of the forestry creation sites we planted last season.
We planted over 16,000 broadleaf trees in several compartments.
When the trees were planted the stream along the outside of the fence was only 6 inch deep with banks about 3 feet high on either side.
Today we needed waders to start the beat-up work.
Just don't ask how we crossed the stream to get on site.

It was a wet start to this year's planting season, with a couple of days beat-up work in the central lakes.
The downpours at the start of the week made it tough just getting on site, Standing water & run-off on the roads, and boggy access tracks, and very wet underfoot once we were on site.

The access road onto our latest site runs along this golf course, it can be a bit wet sometimes but this is how it looked this morning at 8.15am
With heavy rain forecast for overnight and into tomorrow it's likely to get much worse.
Still the local ducks seemed happy.

A few shots from the ash stem we removed this week.
The stem was riddled with metal ( barbed wire, nails, wire stock fence and screws)
The red arrows show a couple of nails we cut around.

This is the remaining portion of a mature ash tree stem.
We took most of the tree down about 4 years ago. due to it having heavy die-back of the crown.
We left about 5 meters of the main stem standing for wildlife habitat.
It was time to take the stem down due to decay in the base ( honey fungus).
The pink line indicates where an old stock fence and barbed wire are embedded in the tree. We had already taken quite a bit off the height at this point.
