We had some land cleared over the weekend, using a Bobcat with a mulching attachment. The land was mostly bramble, with a few fallen pines. Very steep, very unusable.

Here’s an idea of what it does (not our video, but similarly cool).

And here’s the result. Now we need to do something with it before the weeds grow back again. The kittens have already been for a sniff and a frolic on it. Pretty sure the pukekos are annoyed that we’ve cleared their house too.

The guys were so skilled with this Spinning Maw of Death that they managed to keep the fruit trees that we were only vaguely aware of. So we have quince, limes, more lemons, guava and ice cream bean (Inga edulis). Happy days!
