Sometimes you’re reminded just how quickly things can change. During the storm, half of this tree came down and by some miracle, the only thing damaged was my wheelbarrow. Somehow, this tree missed the house, the hutch, and the aviary. Even my husband’s truck came through unscathed despite a large branch falling directly onto it.
Looking at the damage, I’m incredibly grateful for how much worse this could have been. My heart goes out to the birds that were in the hutch (I’ve moved them to the aviary for the time being while my husband removes the branch) I can only imagine how frightening it must have been when half of this tree came crashing down around them.
We were very lucky this time.
