A brush pile is a mound or heap of woody vegetative materials and often serves as cover for particular wildlife species.
Process
BASE
Layered logs on the bottom provides space for animals to nest or take cover.
MIDDLE
Loosely formed sticks throughout the middle area allows sunlight and air to pass through.
TOP
Tightly packed sticks on top can be good protective cover against harsh weather conditions.
FUN FACT:
The carbon monoxide released from dying brush piles is great for tree growth.
