Survivor Oak


I have taken many pictures this morning and I just don't know what to do with them all. So for now here is a photo of the Oak I am calling the survivor. Recall this Oak narrowly escaped a mowing job my neightbor performed - I'm sure out of the goodness of his heart.

We have also had additional deer damage to a second Peach tree, to the plum and apparently an apple tree.

Our wild other trees that we have hung on to all winter are doing fine except Marks favorite, the yellow poplar has had it terminal bud eaten off by a deer. We are very disappointed. I kinda figured this could happen but then I secretly hoped that the deer would instinctually leave me alone because I had studied them some in college. Very silly things we believe - if we admitted it.
