Tulip Tree


 

BetterPhoto.com Editor's Pick  
Tulip Tree
Tulip Tree

---
During a Naturalist Walk in Peace Valley Park (Doylestown, Pennsylvania) two days ago,
----
The ranger stopped to admire this tree--he clearly favored it judging by the look on his face as he talked about it. Then he took one of the large leaves, folded it and removed bits of its flesh. He had made a tulip tree leaf into a smiling face!
----
This was the very last perfectly fresh blossom on the tree for this Spring

  Pretty capture and nice pov, Michelle! I have two of these trees and hate them. Always have to pick up branches every time I mow.

  Lovely capture, a reminder of warm spring. Today we are having our first snowfall of the winter and it's so exciting, it doesn't snow much here in Christchurch.

  Wonderful capture Michelle! I must say, you not only have a gifted talent behind a lense, you also have a gifted talent with a pen! So love your captures and your ever well-written delightful to read informative descriptions.
