At last, the sun came out today.  A welcome sight.
Picture
A beautiful black cherry tree-hug inspired thoughts of fluid grace.
Picture
Dancing in the tree-tops.
Picture
And reflections on life, death and freedom.  💚 Peace

Another rainy cold morning tree-hug.  
Picture
I thought I was drawn over by the profusion of lenticel-lines covering the trunk.
Picture
But then I saw these tree-eyes looking right at me and I wasn't so sure.
Picture
There was an interesting story of healing from an old  bark-wound.
Picture
And a lesson about rain-bubbles as they danced down the bark. Take delight in nature, rain or shine.  It is all good when you look for it.  💚 Peace

It was raining and 44 degrees this morning!  Had to pull out the cold weather gear and umbrellas.
Picture
The rain-glistening bark revealed more of the tree-contours and unique character.
Picture
A tree-couple nestled neatly together.
Picture
A Mick Jaggeresque tree-being sang Gimme Shelter.
Picture
While a more operatic tree-singer caught my eye on the way back.  Step up to the challenges. There is still magic at hand.  Find the songs in your heart.  💚 Peace

A lovely black birch tree-hug this morning, a bit off the trail.
Picture
Towering trunk-spires rejoiced in light and delicate spring colors.
Picture
As the black birch matures outer layers of its bark break into plates that curl away from the trunk and eventually detach.  
Picture
Sometimes taking the form of angel bark-wings.  Life can be challenging.  Trust the angels to be there when you need them.  💚  Peace

Sometimes I don't know what draws me to a tree until I start taking pictures.  
Picture
I noticed the way this twig was bending back toward the light and then saw peering down at me this sweet heart tree-eye. 💚
Picture
I was intrigued seeing how the branches emerged from the beech-trunk.
Picture
It's super smooth bark the perfect canvas for leaf-art.
Picture
And beech tree elephant-toes are still my favorite!  Find your joy in the presence of  nature's pure being.  💚 Peace

A prayerful energy from this tree-friend drew me over.
Picture
We were bathed in the peaceful morning sunlight.
Picture
There was a steady balancing presence.
Picture
Down the trail a bit something new! A springtime snowball with colorful sprinkles? Actually it's a wool sower gall.  It takes two years to form.  If you Google it I think you'll be amazed. The magic, mystery and wonders of nature await us friends.  💚 Peace

I feel so blessed having these magnificent trees to hug and the time to hug them.
Picture
They lift my spirits and give me hope.
Picture
Their power is comforting.
Picture
Their stories reassuring.  Find your home in Nature's generous arms and light.  💚 Peace

A perfect hugging-tree awaited me this morning.
Picture
Tree-arms wide open and inviting.  And such a sweet face.
Picture
She told a story of yin and yang.
Picture
And I felt angels dancing through the leaves.  Enjoy the harmony, joy and light of the season.  💚 Peace

I visited an old tree-friend for this morning's hug. 
Picture
Leaf-bouquets were popping out all over.
Picture
There was a lovely tree-maiden adorned in a leafy-headdress.
Picture
A swirled bark-eye reflected on a long life-story of growth and transformation.
Picture
And a special tree-creature with bright bushy leaf-eyebrows posed proudly. So many nature-friends await us to share their magical charm and beauty.  💚 Peace

A friendly tree-greeter caught my attention just off the trail.  An invitation for this morning's tree-hug.
Picture
There were many birds keeping us company with their varied sweet songs, insistent calls and woody-drumming.  
Picture
 It's funny how we rarely catch sight of them in the tree-tops.
Picture
What I did see was an unusual landing place for an empty half-nutshell ... I think from a different species tree.
Picture
Nearby I was excited to see the maple viburnum flowers bursting into exquisite springtime bouquets.
Picture
And back home a perfect star-of-Bethlehem flower revealed it's delicate green-heart.  Bring you heart to Nature.  Open it to the multitude of gifts awaiting you. 💚 Peace

A powerful teaching tree-hug this morning.
Picture
From the trail it looked like a 'regular' tree, but when I peeked around the other side it had a powerful tale to tell.
Picture
A wide-eyed tree-woman comforting her crying tree-baby looked out at the fallen-trunk they had been part of.
Picture
The split had happened many years ago and the fallen-one has fulfilled a different role in the woodland ecosystem.
Picture
Nature and the healing power of the trees continues to touch me deeply.  Stay strong.  Comfort and be comforted.  Trust in the healing-truths of Nature.  💚 Peace

I ventured into a different part of the woods this morning.  
Picture
A great (and diverse) gathering of mighty oaks and stately maples convened.
Picture
I felt drawn into the embrace of this great oak's trunk-energy field.
Picture
The glinting sun through open spaces was indeed magical and warming.  Stand in the light.  Accept the embrace of the earth's soul.  Be one with it all.  💚 Peace

A cool beech tree-hug this morning.
Picture
Fascinating bark-markings.
Picture
Tree-arms enveloped in the healing green light.
Picture
And a purposeful shadow-elf was seen writing with a shadow-quill pen.  Have fun.  Breathe deep. Welcome the soft embrace of the healing light.  💚 Peace

I learned some new things during today's tree-hug walk through the woods.
Picture
When the trunks, branches or roots of two trees grow together it is called inosculation.  It's similar to grafting.
Picture
This happens most commonly in trees of the same species, but can happen across related species.  In this example there is a birch and an oak.
Picture
In forestry such trees are referred to as gemels from the Latin word meaning 'a pair'.
Picture
Back along the trail I found this little pod, which I thought was some type of seed.
Picture
It is actually a gall that houses gall wasp larvae.  This particular one is associated with oak trees and is commonly called an oak apple!  Keep looking, keep learning, treasure the limitless wonders of nature.  💚 Peace

This morning's tree-hug was with a lovely tree I see often.  It has a very unique bark with thick horizontal lenticels.  I have yet to identify it.   The woods are filled in with green now and it's finally getting warm.  My garden calls so tree-stories will be less while I catch up with the magic right outside my door.  💚 Peace

I stopped at a hornbeam grove for this morning's tree-hug.
Picture
The American hornbeam is also known as musclewood, for obvious reasons.
Picture
It's bark is smooth and cool to the touch.
Picture
The light created a most unusual tree-silhouette.
Picture
And just off the trail there was a perfectly camouflaged wood frog .  Step into nature to see and feel beyond the limits of your mind.  💚 Peace

I love when we come to a place in the woods where there are no traffic sounds. This morning's tree-hug was peaceful.
Picture
Never saw this before, a common brown cup mushroom on the trail nearby.  
Picture
And back on the home-front a special feather - wondering if it's from an owl?  Enjoy all the magic of spring.  💚  Peace

An unusual tree-hug this morning.  
Picture
A focused tree-lady was doing an advanced yoga pose.
Picture
A small leaf cast a long shadow under her tree-eye.
Picture
A bark-spiral where the two trunks meet.  Stay flexible, put the shadows behind you, have trust in the cycles of life.  💚 Peace

I stopped to visit a handsome tree-couple by the stream this morning. 
Picture
I felt enveloped in peace in their presence.
Picture
An unusual tree-wound revealed itself on the other side.
Picture
I hope you found some peace today too.  💚

A very tall-tree hug this morning.
Picture
High above a lovely tree-lady danced with green new-light.
Picture
While below some interlocking bark-beings celebrated.  Dance, celebrate, embrace the light.  💚 Peace

A marsupial visitor in the backyard last night! Wow 💕

I was drawn to this secluded birch grove this morning.
Picture
A place of serenity.
Picture
I can't complain about weather because I've learned it's part of the magic of the woods.  How else would I see tear-trails of rain from birch-eyes.
Picture
Or be led to sensitive tree-faces.
Picture
And bark-wounds healed over with time.
Picture
Where glowing ringed tree-worlds told of their life-journey.
Picture
Nearby light-created diamond-droplets on newly born leaves.
Picture
And a perfect rain-grown toad-stool stood.  Step into the truth of nature's beauty with an open heart. 💚 Peace

A special sitting tree-hug on Mother's Day morning.
Picture
The flat-topped rock made for an easy sit.
Picture
It had been there for so long the tree grew around it.
Picture
Other rocks also fixed into place over time cascaded down the trunk.
Picture
Baby-leaves newly-sprouted out through the bark.
Picture
Nearby a  pine-youngster with new growth.
Picture
And a precious family of flowers.  Mothers are to be treasured forever.  💚 Peace

The light rain this morning brought a soft stillness to the woods.
Picture
A cozy retreat for a woodland creature.
Picture
Visions through the eyes of a cloaked bark-maiden.
Picture
May Lily fireworks display!
Picture
And a world of ferns unfurling fully formed.  Have fun.  Breathe in the simple blessings within every moment..💚 Peace

Translucent shades of green showered over this morning's sugar maple tree-hug.
Picture
Grateful tree-arms lifted to the light.
Picture
Tree-song permeated the air with stillness.
Picture
Tree-lovers danced in perfect harmony.
Picture
An ancient tree-soul reflected on the wonder of his woodland-home.  Share a moment of being with a tree-friend.  💚 Peace
