Our Bush Guide Falling a Tree

Here is Brian, our bush-guide, falling a tree for one of the Digeridoos to be made. We had to check to see if termites had eaten the center out of the tree, and the only way to do that is to throw the ax into it. A Digeridoo is a wooden musical instrument that is traditional to the Aborigines. You may think that we shouldn't cut down a tree for such a silly thing, but because of Brian this entire field of trees has been kept from getting cleared out for the past 6 years.
