Caption
While woodlands look like a thing that just naturally happen for one to be healthy care must be taken. Without this they can become overgrown with trees, shutting out the light to the ground and stopping anything growing there.

The thinning out allows light to reach the woodland floor which in turn allows other things to grow there. This results in a more healthy and diversified woodland. The other benefit is that the felled trees are a worthy commodity and so once cut to a uniform length are stacked ready for collection.

Here you are surrounded by freshly felled trees waiting to be trimmed before being taken to the make shift collection yard.
