The forest’s structural redundancy elegantly transforms a catastrophic fall into a suspended sanctuary, proving that ecosystems are integrated architectures rather than mere collections of trees.

Undercanopy Suspends Fallen Tree #forest #adventure #nativetrees #woodland #nature #explore #wowAjouté :
A lot of interesting things can take place when a tree falls over or partially falls over. Here is a big bit of an ash tree which is kind of over there the last bit of it and it all died of ash dieback. And yeah, that's the last bit.
Another bit fell the other way last year.
So this as it's fallen has brought loads of other stuff with it. It has not actually touched the ground. It's just been held up by the under canopy. You see here is a hazel branch and a hazel has like an under canopy tree which has loads of branches from the base like this one's doing here and some of the branches have been caught in the branches of the ash tree and just brought down.
Eventually I suppose the weight of them would make them touch the ground and then they'd root in and form new trees.
But it's also made a little bit of a tangle of quite a few other trees and it's sort of been anchored into place here by all of these other sort of hazel branches and goodness knows what. So yeah, it's not not always a very sort of just a clearly a tree falls over. Often it's it disturbs everything around it and causes loads of other things to go on. But it also creates like a light space. You can see up there there's loads of light up there now. So another big tree or load of big trees will be trying to race to get to the top over there.
So can't see any yet but that will happen very soon. Bit of a look around I'd find some. But yeah, I wonder how long this is going to be here because it's been here I think over a year like this now perhaps even longer. It just sort of sits in the air and it because it rots much more slowly if it's not on the ground. So as long as these trees kind of hold it up it could stay there for years and honey suckles and things will grow up here and it just becomes like another branch but kind of held in the air. Good place for lots of animals to live.
But yeah, very slow rotting wood in the air. Even all the ivy is still attached to it, but also kind of dead as well.
But yeah, kind of interesting. Makes the forest under canopy much thicker and more of kind of a jungle to explore.
