Do you know the trunk girth for this big yellow box?

No Steve, will get measurements for the latest trees I've put up. Will have to carry a tape measure with my camera now :)

Excellent timeline photos, very worthy of being a featured image. I noticed it shed the large lower branch during the 2018-19 drought. A good example of large branch drop as a drought adaptation: "During hot dry conditions, branches with insufficient water become brittle and can fall in windy conditions, especially from old trees.
