Perhaps that tree was a pussy willow (Salix spp - true tree, fair dinkum)

Thanks Danny, We are farming as well. I will toss the wirestrainers.

They get huge ...One was trapped on Bowen Mountain years ago , screams that sounded like a woman being murdered had the local police force up there in no time ..
Not one of them was game to go near the trap , this thing was huge , evil and ready to inflict an injury .

just so people know how quickly a cat will go feral .... I have had cats over the years and made the mistake of moving to the bush ( 400 acres of scrub ) ..the day we got there our loving house cat took off , winter passed and we though he was long gone until we were up the hills and this thing that was once our cat came at us hissing and scratching the air like something demented , we tried to catch him but he would have seriously hurt us if we were able to get close enough to him .

In a matter of months he had gone feral and was living off small mammals and birds on the property ...

OK . . Enough is enough . . Def. my last here

A man looks over his side fence and spots the boy next door digging a big hole.
He asks the boy why he's doing that.
The boy responds, telling the man his canary died.
The man gave him his sympathy but asked "Why such a big hole?"
To which the boy replied "Your cat ate it."

An oldie but a goodie
