> Things were fine until the holly branches reached a height that provided a 
> resting place for the squirrels that use the telephone and fiber wires as 
> a "high road". The resting squirrels chewed into the fiber bundles, 
> requiring the replacement of a section of the fiber line.  The utility 
> company that had planted the hollies then required that they be cut down, 
> which they did, leaving stumps about two inches high. These sprouted 
> regrowth which is now about four feet high. This photo shows the female 
> member of the work crew shaping up the first of the hollies.
