Ent

You could see how the Anglo-Saxons could have looked at trees such as this and invested them with mystical powers. Ent is Anglo-Saxon for giant. I didn't notice the lifelike features of this one until I downloaded my images. In Tolkien's Middle Earth Treebeard is the oldest of the Ents. I've no idea how many others we have in these parts.

Thank you to those who commented on yesterday's blip. I do appreciate your comments. I've been feeling a bit deflated of late.
