Maybe it is “climate change” itself...maybe the temp has gone up 2 degrees and a lower portion of the bark on e-nitens jumps off the tree

It's Tassie, you Pelicans and the sun doesn't get much above the horizon during the long cold winter. So the trees bend that way looking for sunshine and warmth. Don't worry, The trees'll straighten up over Tassies' 3 days of summer. :lol: :lol:
