Remove hazard limbs from mature old-growth Ashe juniper, site 1, the maintained East Trail through the relict bigtooth maple stand, Lost Maples State Natural Area (Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

The survey above flagged dead or hazard limbs on a mature, nesting-quality Ashe juniper, and careful removal by a credentialed crew keeps the tree healthy and its canopy structure intact for the warbler's nesting bark without risking storm-driven limb failure.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. 1. Confirm the work plan, breeding-season timing, and identified mature juniper cluster with park staff before starting; work is scheduled outside the golden-cheeked warbler and black-capped vireo breeding season only, roughly March through July.
2. 2. Photograph the mature juniper and its dead or hazard limbs before starting, from the same vantage used in the survey.
3. 3. Using hand tools or a chainsaw operated by a credentialed crew member, remove only dead or hazard limbs, preserving the mature canopy's overall shaggy-bark structure and never felling or topping the mature juniper itself.
4. 4. Photograph the treated juniper from the matching before vantage and record the limbs removed.

What counts as done

• Confirmation the work was scheduled outside the March through July breeding season window
• Before photo of the dead or hazard limbs on the mature juniper
• Confirmation only dead or hazard limbs were removed, mature canopy structure and shaggy bark preserved, no felling or topping
• Record of the limbs removed
• After photo of the treated juniper from the matching vantage

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
