Here we go again! What can we make out of this day? Anything we want! Have a GREAT Tuesday! Ummmmmm... I've got to go greet the landing party.....
What an absolutely PERFECT day! Not a cloud in the sky & temps in the low 70s. It doesn't get much better than that.
Their first day on the ground and my "clearing" crews are making GREAT progress. The way they're going, they'll be ready to start burning by Thursday. The ground is wet but it's holding together well and not making mud bogs. The idea is to be as minimally intrusive as possible so we aren't destroying more than we are restoring. We've had deer wandering around today just watching what was going on. It was their home that was destroyed but they're still there... adapting. It's important to me that the critters continue to make this their home through the entire reclaiming process. I'm just funny that way. Logging is part of the timber growing process but habitat destruction does not have to be.
Glad your project is going well. If logging is done, the habitat is destroyed and/or changed for awhile. If the creatures like deep woods, they don't have it after logging. Their habitat shrinks each year all over the globe. There are really too many of us.
Carol - Logging doesn't HAVE to destroy habitat. There always is some impact but selective cutting and not allowing large clear-cuts can minimize it. What destroys the habitat is when people get greedy and try to max out the bottom line regardless of the cost to nature. This piece I'm currently working on is a good example of that greed. I can't do anything about that but by spring I will have a new forest taking the place of the one that was completely destroyed. Critters are flexible. All they want is to be able to live their lives with the least amount of interruption. They have been temporarily displaced to surrounding areas but with a little help, they'll be back.
