Whether these trees were the victims of disease or
over-zealous pruning, it’s hard to say. Tiny twigs were sprouting from some of the
haphazardly whacked branches, so maybe they’ll recover someday.
Although the sky in front of me was dark and foreboding,
behind me the clouds sporadically split apart to let the sun through, and I’d have a
few seconds at a time to put in shadows.
Meanwhile, I don’t know what was
going on with the cones in front of the house – I didn’t see any nearby
holes, construction or other hazards for them to be marking – but I suppose it’s
not the strangest sight I’ve seen in Maple Leaf.
Those strangely pruned trees did provide great shadows on the house. Like you I sometimes ride around and wonder what is going on. lol
