.I am following a tree. Are you?

 Thanks to the https://squirrelbasket.wordpress.com/

 Earlier this morning i had breakfast at the tree i am following.

And I am sure through  the tree, squirrelbasket, Hollis and the power of mind, there were 8 crocuses blooming at the foot of the tree. I have never seen so much on that side of the erratic rock, ha, there was none on the east side of the rock, where i usually see more crocuses.





The goose berry bush shows green leaves, and the rose has leave buds. Also in this 2 photo you see how the two trees, were actually one tree, still a twin of sorts, like i wrote before. The one died and this one very much alive.  As you see i measured the tree, to see next year if it actually does grow.

No photo, but a few strong big Poplars in the yard do  have catkins

But here is ours! green buds at at the top of the tree!

Have you been following the tree long enough to know what caused the big bend in it?

Hi Live and Learn, i found a photo from 25 years ago, same size tree, amazingly. Next month i will post that photo and make one exactly the same. I will also look at the way it bends compared to other old trees there. There are more of them, crooked trees, on this bench, i assume at one time they were wind exposed, but as the forest has grown, not so anymore and its little brothers and sisters grow straight now.

It will be interesting to see the comparisons between the old and new photos next month!

That's so interesting and it'll be fun to watch it over the year. I am not following a tree, but, I do keep an eye on the fruit trees in my yard. :)
