the roots must be deep keeping the trees grounded.
this tree is located across from the one in the top photo

It looks very cold where you are, Bill. Keep warm.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
It's amazing where some trees are able to survive and flourish.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh. Hold on, fella! As in tree, and you, too! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe tree is planning to stay there for the rest of their lives.
ReplyDeleteIf only we were as well anchored.
ReplyDeleteThat should be deep rooted to withstand the erosion of the river. Great capture
ReplyDeleteBrave tree to keep up there.
ReplyDeleteThose trees are though cookies.
ReplyDelete...and rocks help!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how roots find there way to stay planted! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteHi Bill.
ReplyDeleteSuper nice Bill those trees right by the water.
Greetings from Patricia.
I am always amazed at how life adjusts to its surroundings. From iny shrubs in a shallow crag of rock to a tree settled deep, unmoved by passing water, life holds on.
ReplyDeleteWe're in the midst of high winds here in the mountains of NC...and I marvel how 100 foot tall trees move so much but have steady roots going so far into the earth that I don't worry they'd fall.
ReplyDeleteIt is a survivor!
ReplyDeleteThey are hanging on!
ReplyDeleteTrees hanging on to a precarious bank get my attention.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are always so interesting!!
ReplyDeleteBe well.
Trees have to be tough to survive in these environments. Good views in your photos.
ReplyDeleteIncreible como el rio erosiona con su fuerza los bordes; y como se mantienen unidos por sus raices esos arboles.
ReplyDeleteMuy buena fotogragfia muy intersante!!
Feliz Navidad Bill (si no puedo saludarte despues) que la pases muy bien con la familia ❤
