That must be it. I definitely think we need to manage the landscape. I figure given the absense of us the woodlands would sort themselves out. Unfortunately we are here and probably have to intervene.

I started categorizing all of the flora in my area and scarily greater than 50% is simply not native at all. From the wildflowers to shrubs and trees.
