I took a walk down to the green P. vivax grove today and took some photos.
First one is an example of the damage that squirrels can do when they get a taste for fresh bamboo shoots.
These next two are showing holes in the culms likely made by some sort of cavity nesting bird. However, I have never seen anything go in or come out of those holes, nor seen any sort of nesting material sticking out of them. So this is just a guess on my part.
This next one is a pic of me trying to give some sort of perspective as to how big some of these new culms are by putting my foot up against one.
And the next ones are just some shots I took of sections of the bamboo grove itself.
