A few days ago, my Bradford Pear tree sacrificed more wood for the woodpile: https://pbase.com/britestar/image/174673932
**********
My husband had to make over a half dozen trips like this with his backhoe to clean up the debris. We had lost over 1/3 of that tree. It was our third tree been downed by bad weather since May. However, based on what is happening all around the world with Climate Change, I feel we are lucky that the loss of a few trees has been the worst of things for us.
Part of the Bradford Pear still stands. Hopefully, it can recover.
