Philippe,
That is very sad, sad, sad.
Here in northern California we see great swaths of dying and dead bark beetle
trees and I have seen reports of the devastation up into the great forests of
western Canada.
Where it will end no one knows.
Best,
Bill

Some of our trees lining the park died within a week in the course of the
summer. Hot temps (global warming?) didn’t help as the beetles could
proliferate quickly.
Yesterday saw a big change in our landscape … A friend and his old but worthy
tractor came to help me.

The next step? Extending the fence to keep the wild boars at bay …
