Our Big Tree Adventure
A gigantic old fir tree was too close to the house and had to come down. The does had a wonderful time cleaning up leaves and branches.
We lost our two palm trees but you can see the magnolia branch in the pic on the left. It was saved. Even though we are in Oregon, we have a microclimate that is hot and dry in the summer and cold but little snow in the winter.
You can see how big the tree was and how close it was to the house.
Huge branches fell on the house last year and more were ready to fall. We hated to take it down but will certainly sleep better now.
Our littliest doeling - an experimental breeding resulting in a June baby. The sire is our Whado replacement ; a Whado faded red son that thankfully produced a good colored kid.
She is a spunky girl who holds her own with the big kids.
The goats were down under the deep limbs.
The easy to reach stuff wasn't good enough.

The logger did an great job of falling the tree exactly where he wanted to - sparing our redwood tree in the background.
