Hi all,
Visited relatives who live in Canberra,and noticed
to my horror that in their fron't yard, what used to be a flourishing
smoothed bark beutiful bushy eucalypt, is now just an ugly dead
tree.
What actually happened to the tree was a Galah who
used to pearch on the side of the tree all day, physically bit off so much
bark that he eventually ring barked it!
And I can actually remember visiting my relatives
last year and seeing the first of this act of herbacide,only at that time I
thought the bird was only trying to create itself a hollow,little did I know it
was trying to destroy the tree!
Has anyone else came across such an
event?
