The Trucks Came Today.......

So many times I've posted pictures of the very special place I like to walk -
along Big Goose creek.



In all seasons it's beautiful. 



Today the city showed up to clear and trim and cut.  When I walked by they were
eyeing the big tree on the left hand side.  For 25 years they've paid no attention
to the creek.  When somebody gouged a ditch along it I
had to beg them to come down with a load
of soil and fill it in.  Last summer a hole developed alongside of the
bridge big enough for a child or adult could disappear into. 
I called them several times and they finally came down and
put a little fence around it.

So here's part of the "beautification". 
Where will the ducks and turkeys and pheasants find
cover now?  Where will creatures find shade? 
Where is the old apple tree?
Why are they doing this?
