This damage is caused by infestations of the invasive Emerald Ash Borer. Larval feeding leads to large winding “galleries” which disrupt nutrient flow and essential girdle the host ash tree. We’ve seen large-scale dieback of ash stands in the northeast for several years now.

Pine bark adelgid (unlike the notorious hemlock wolly adelgid) doesn’t typically harm healthy adult trees. Large infestations can make a tree’s trunk appear as if it was covered in snow. Here’s an affected E. White Pine #nature #photography #ecology #conservation

The look of this yellow birch is the result of a sapling sprouting atop a fallen tree known as a “nurse log”. As the log beneath decays, what’s left is this striking stilted appearance. #nature #ecology #forest #photography #hiking

An unexpected addition was made to the family a few weeks ago. Odie came to the house after being dumped on the side of the road. After being unable to find his owner, I decided to keep him. He’s going to be doing a lot of hiking this summer. ⛰️ #hiking #dogs #pets
