The tree surgeon and the man who wants to build on 'our' green...said the TREE was rotten to the core...pot-kettle-black

Tree Surgeons.

This old fir tree believed to be around 120 years old was causing problems for the nearby buildings ( the root system ) plus it was going rotten on the inside. It was the second large tree in this garden that had been cut down. It’s hard work and you really need to be agile and young.

A tree surgeon carries out all kinds of tree work including planting, care and maintenance and tree hazard assessments. Tree surgeons are also known as tree climbers or arborists. As a tree surgeon, you would need to be physically fit and have a head for heights. If you are interested in conservation and the environment, and you would like a practical job working outside, this job could be for you.

To get into this type of work you will need to be trained in using equipment such as chainsaws, ropes, ladders and harnesses. Many people move into this job after getting experience as a ground worker or helping tree surgeons. You may also be able to get into this job through an Apprenticeship in Trees and Timber.​

As a tree surgeon or tree climber, your work really begins once you have climbed into the tree. Your duties will include:

Inspections to assess the health of trees, street or park tree pruning and branch removals, felling, planting, hazard assessment and diagnosis and pest control.

Your duties may also involve other tasks such as snow removal to take the weight off branches. You will usually work from a rope and harness, or you might use elevated work platforms known as cherry-pickers.​ People able to care for your trees are generally either consultants (tree advisors or arboriculture) or contractors (tree surgeons or arborists)

Tree Surgeon at work...

I spent an entertaining few minutes this morning, whilst waiting for my train to come, watching a tree surgeon hack bits of a tree 30 feet in the air. The swinging chainsaw was still running... I did a bit of Photoshop tweakery to get a better B&W silhouette. Ref: D219-31
