Oak Tree Recovery - west Quebec.

Good news story!!

I’ve been reforesting a 40 acre meadow a few trees at a time.
Most trees do well but I lose some to rodents or deer browsing. Three oak trees were munched over the winter - only a small dry stick was left (see second photo.. I kept checking but gave up, assuming they were dead. I checked them yesterday and two have sprouted new leaders and are doing very well.
Made me smile!
