Loss of Suburban Trees
I was upset to wake up yet again to the sound of chainsaws felling 2 mature oaks on Kingdale road. I'm fully supportive of new housing but in the last 2 years we have at least 7 apartment blocks built or under construction here. These trees were at the back of the section and could have been saved.
These sections are all cleared, topsoil and all vegetation removed. Apart from a couple of ornamental annuals, no plants are replaced. Where do the birds, wetas, other insect and birdlife go!
So sad!
