Day 170
Another suburban walk - just random left and right turns. I came across this sign. The Government is erecting them on patches of land, often treed like little parks, to warn residents that they cannot count on the view/green-space existing into the future - that the land is not official green-space and may be built on whenever the Government chooses to sell the land. It is part ofa move to do in-fill development, not just greenfields, to keep the inner city lively and use services more efficiently as well as give people more choices about where they live.

I hope they nevertheless leave enough little patches of green for you

It's a neat drawing and I really like the way you've made portraits of the two very specific and different trees.
