Amazing how regenerative nature is. A harvested forest looks really bleak, like a bomb went off, but within a few years the amount of life that bounces back is stunning. In a few years more, you can't even tell, you just have a young forest.
Your trees look super healthy.
The area that we cleared for planting was just over 2 acres. It was completely overgrown with old dying ash trees and lots of Thornwood.
The wildlife that now visits this plush forest is amazing.
