ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An apparatus for sorting and separating logs allows logs to be fed individually for further processing. The log sorter has a rotating quadrant which is covered and has no gaps or apertures that allows logs or branches to become jammed. Furthermore, the rotating quadrant raises the logs above a first holding location. The apparatus includes a movable quadrant with a shelf at a top edge to support at least one log, the movable quadrant moves a log up to a second holding position over a fixed quadrant having radial fins extending through slots in the shelf of the movable quadrant so the fins push a log to the outside of the shelf as the movable quadrant raises it. A transfer feeder comprising a series of rotatable discs with aligned notches, transfers a log from the second holding position to an exit.
