Happy #ThickTrunkTuesday

Hidden all summer by leaves, some sort of nest.
Never saw any creatures in this tree, so could just have been a failed attempt.

For my friends who can...sign and try to save the planet. The billionaires are moving to Mars and leaving us what they will have trashed.

Two partially opened buds saved from an approaching storm. The third probably won't bother.

Had to share that as I looked out at this earlier, a bald eagle sailed by to settle -for a moment - in the tallest bare tree in the center.
For someone raised in a big city, this kind of experience is a rare blessing.

What I see Here
Vortices of crows
A path leading to nowhere
A screaming tree witch
Arms aloft screeching her spells
To unheeding winter sky

Wilding of the green
Tamed herbs meant to spice the pot
Now grow as chaos
What was meant for cook's magic
Now a source for witches' spells

Today's garden. Yesterday's fog.
Orange leaves of Chinese dogwood and Azalea. And next year's bud on Rhododedron Nova Zembla.
