The march of the slash pines

Slash pines have been planted for various reasons on properties in our valley, including our own, and they reproduce rather too well. Our paddock that sits under the shadow of Billen Cliffs has way too many of the feral xmas tress for my liking, so
I spent a couple of hours over the weekend traipsing through the face-high grasses and hacked most of them down with a bush saw. When we get our chain saw back from being repaired, the big ones can be sawn down too.
