When a tree falls…

When you cross the footbridge you enter private land full of trees some 20 or 30 metres tall. From time to time a tree becomes unstable and there’s a risk it’ll fall. On Tuesday, 31 December 2019 one such tree was taken down by arborists.

It’s a long and dangerous process. Here are a couple of moments.

Video: The tree succumbs. (Turn up the volume — it was a mighty crash.)
