Hi Tweets,
I noticed the recent conversation about Barred Owls in Capitol Hill and
concerns over hazard tree management and effects to wildlife.
I'd like to share the WDFW Wildlife Tree website for general information
regarding this subject (also a downloadable and printable PDF available
there).
Here is the website:

Also, working with professional accredited arborists through the
International Society of Arboriculture hugely assists in defining a
perceived versus actual hazard status of a subject tree and what
management options are available to remedy any hazard.
Best in your tree and bird study-
