  1. It seems to be a favourite with the birds too. Is it still standing I wonder.

  16. Great shot of tree, sky, fence, and pristine grass. At first I thought all it's leaves had already fallen, but the grass shows not a leaf on it...so now I think it's dead. But then, maybe not!

  17. Isn't it early in the season for a tree to have lost all its leaves, I wonder?

  18. It looks like it has had some hardships! Stay safe, Bill!

  25. A handsome tree. At some point they might need to cable it in order to keep the two sections from falling apart.

  26. This is certainly a well shaped tree, but it does not look at all well, or has it just lost its leaves for its winters nap?

  27. It's a beautiful image and I loved the fence and tree!

  28. A lone tree without a leaf is always a wonderful to look out.
