#oldgrowth — Public Fediverse posts

Found these old growth redwoods with some thick burn scars. Our old trees hold some important stories we could learn from. Probably preaching to the choir here, but worth saying we need our old growth trees to protect our environment from fires, keeping ecosystems diverse and extra cool during these burning hot days. And when we might feel helpless in that challenge its not hopeless, just being around these giant trees creates an inner calm you can actually feel. Growing in the language of peace. Trees are like a warm friend, always there when you need them.

Border Wall Construction Destroying Cottonwoods, 'Green Ribbon' Running Through the Desert

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, August 4, 2026

#LochielAZ -- "Day 6 at #GrandmotherCamp, there was no border wall construction since the tree sit began last Wednesday in this rich landscape. The cottonwood trees are the nesting place of #MigratoryBirds, including the rare #YellowBilledCuckoo.

" 'We've lost three grandmothers that took 250 years to grow. They were obliterated by the monstrous machinations in four hours,' Kate said on Monday from the tree sit in Lochiel, about 25 miles east of Nogales, southeast of Tucson.

" 'But I just saw a Yellow-billed #Cuckoo, federally threatened crying over this beautiful meadow.'

" 'This remaining Grandmother, that threatened bird -- we remain hopeful that our efforts here on the ground will be met with thoughtful reasonable conversation and a new direction for Lochiel community,' Kate said.

" 'This remaining Grandmother represents hope and resistance.' "

My #PhotoArt tribute to #BigLonelyDoug - one of the biggest #DouglasFir #trees in the world.

Learn more about this lonely #OldGrowth tree:
"It has the third highest tree score and third widest diameter of any known Douglas-fir in Canada, following the Red Creek Fir in the nearby San Juan Valley and the Bonin Giant in the Coquitlam River watershed in British Columbia's Lower Mainland"

There's a raven's nest way up there but you can't see it from this shot. This is in one of the areas I used to patrol & do fish monitoring at.

A slice of the Tarkine
The Road to Nowhere is not a dull drive. Look out for amazing views along the way and be sure to stop and get out of the car.
It’s mind boggling to think that this area is largely unprotected.

#OTD 2 years ago. #Hiking to Upper #Goldstream #waterfalls w/my friend, Lyrica. It was 2 days after big windstorms & we saw no one else on the trails! I love it when I see no public, when out in public nature spots 🥰

I recommend this area in Winter if you like avoiding ppl too.
