A bee visiting the red bud tree.
So, yesterday the big fruitless mulberry tree in our backyard finally got cut down. I'm pretty bummed about it, because that tree was older than me, and so, a huge part of my childhood… lol, no pun intended. I used to have a swing on it (the round kind on a single rope), which sent me to the ER twice upon breaking. Also, it was the main shade tree in our yard… we have a ton of fruit trees, and a sorta big cherry tree, but none that really shaded our yard (and house) like the mulberry.
Together they light the way.
Also, our tree again. Looks better with presents, huh?
Can't wait to open them tomorrow! Yay!
I would have liked to photograph the ants running up and down the trunk of our cherry tree… but unfortunately they are too fast. Instead, here's the lovely details of the tree's bark.
