Old Gnarly Tree

While the city of Calgary does have a lot of trees in it, there are not a lot of trees in the country side surrounding it.
This old gnarly tree has been around for a while, but will soon be gone as they are widening the road it is beside.
Here if a builder takes out an important tree he has to plant a replacement in the landscape of his new project. This is a great tree, you can tell it has dealt with the elements a long time.

I really like that concept of re-planting that which is removed. I hope they do that here as this stretch of road is very barren.

That is such a shame trees are not being planted. A place without trees is barren.
We also have this rule of replanting in lieu.
We also have a road remodelled and it was lined with trees and the authorities bought a device to remove those trees with roots and replant them in other places. It was a sight to see the tree on the road.

That is a shame! wonder why.....

That is a pity. Why could the road not be widened at the other side...

It's very prairie like between Saskatchewan and Alberta
