secret lives of trees
Hello 
treelovers. It's mid October, usually the days of peak fall color in Northern Ohio, and most of the trees are still green; though many have faded to a shade of olive. I think this solves the old debate about weather it is less light or the cooler temperatures that cause the leafs to change colors. It has been a warm Autumn and the result has been green trees.
Since i have no pictures of brilliant colored trees, i have made a short photo essay of trees who have had unusual histories.
beaten, cut, crooked
same tree, looks a little elephantine from this angle
what causes a tree to have multiple trunks; or is it several trees?
it looks as if the inside of this was ripped out by something; lightening?
that is a hornet nest on the right branch
