great pic CJBS, cecil posted some great ice storm shots a while back too. if we'd had that ice here, my property would be denuded...is that the correct word???
jhap, for the most part i actually really like digger pines, just not near power lines or structures... the critters love them because they are open structured....you can often see in them turkeys, hawks, owls, woodpeckers..etc.etc.etc... they also filter the sunlight nicely. the filtered light allows various shrubs and wildflowers to take hold underneath them, til they break and crush the shrub you've enjoyed watching grow...
