Another day in the woods (warning, more birch pictures)....

Plenty more birch to get back still, got 3 more decent bits back today but the rain stopped play, so cut it and will split and stack tomorrow morning.

Cutting here is a bit basic as we are not allowed to use chainsaw except on our own property......



First load ready to go:



Cut and ready to split.
I have left this in the shed overnight as it's now raining:

But at least I added to the stack whilst the sun was out:



I'll leave the birch tomorrow as a new trail has been cut, and children have rolled some logs into a streambed.

Time to do my bit for the community and remove them all to a safe place:

What is the deal with no chainsaws? Noise or pollution or liability?

It's community woodland behind our house.

Only the wardens are allowed to use chainsaws there, otherwise people would turn up from everywhere and just saw down good trees.

Fortunately, I'm the only person next to the woodland with a woodburner.

Most folks see me out there and decide it looks like hard work getting the wood in, and I have it all to myself.

Suits me fine ;-)

It's a pushbike, I cycle out and just push it home......... ;-)
