The city of Flowood shut down parts of its nature park as crews began to remove 65 trees damaged by the southern pine beetle.
Many trees were dying at the Barnett Reservoir where at least 714 trees need to be removed at a cost of more than $300,000. Altogether nearly twice that many may need to be removed.
