Thanks Bass. That must make people do a double take when they drive by. 
I don't think I have a single tree that is isolated enough to let that 
work. For example, the Nova pear that had every single pear removed is a 
very easy jump from our house roof and the roof is an easy jump from 
either a big pine or a big birch tree both growing on the north side of 
the house.
