still standing

Thought we may have lost this tree a few times today as the wind was so strong and gusty, but the storm seems to have moved on now and the tree’s still standing :-)
The reason it doesn’t have any branches in the middle is because Western Power ‘trimmed’ around the power lines, so it has branches at the bottom and top and a bare middle. It certainly had a sway on today. Picture is colour, taken just before 5 this afternoon.
