Shagbark Hickory marked to go....

One of the oldest trees in our park, per our 2009 tree inventory, is the Shagbark Hickory in the north end near Dundas Street West.  As of this week though, it's sporting an orange dot of death.  This means it's marked for removal.  The tree has been unwell and losing foliage and branches for a number of years but it is still sad to see it go.
