#ThickTrunkTuesday

The "Seven Chiefs" plane tree on Margaret Island, Budapest. Almost 200 years old, it was injured during the siege in WWII and regrew with 6 trunks (one of which branched in two later).

Photo of a large plane tree that branches into 6 trunks at ground level. The leaves are wearing their fall colors, and there is a bench in front of the tree.


Slender sun orchids (Thelymitra pauciflora), Gipsy Point, VIC. With this variable orchid there is always a good chance that larger populations include plants that are either a) hybrids or b) similar species that are hard to tell apart from T. pauciflora ;)

Did you know that New Zealand and other land masses in the south-west Pacific are home to LEAF-VEINED SLUGS?

Unlike their omnivorous European relatives, these slugs eat only fungi. They breathe mainly through the skin of the back, which is kept moist by secretions passing along the many grooves.

I think they're utterly amazing, and apparently so do mesostigmatid mites (look at that mite party by the green slug)!

A photograph of a pair of slugs on a decaying log. One is orange and the other is green, but both have distinct venation on their back, similar to the veins of a leaf.


The Chikanishing River, Killarney Provincial Park Ontario Canada presented a beautiful fall scene with the colorful foliage, stunning reflections, and white water as it flowed over the river rocks. It was a great place to just sit, relax and enjoy the beauty of nature.

#Sunset at #FlamingCliffs, #Mongolia

There's a spot in the #GobiDesert where sunset briefly casts light on the face of these cliffs. On the day of my visit it was cloudy and it appeared that I was out of luck. But as there was a fleeting moment where the sun broke through. I have tweeked the brightness-contrast to make the shot more attractive to me.

'#Trees have no legal status’: calls rise for stronger protection in #UK against felling

"In Norse mythology, it is Yggdrasil, the world tree, with its branches in the heavens & its roots in the underworld, which underpins the very existence of all creation. When it dies, the myths tell us, the world dies with it."

#mythology #nature #photography
The beautiful & rare, open grown ‘Summergill Brook Ash’, that probably was a part of an ancient Ash Silvopasture, sitting near the Wales - England boarder, 300 - 400 years old, without ash dieback! It would of witness ‘The Wars of the Three Kingdoms, the British Civil Wars’. It stands strong, with a slightly more decayed Ancient Ash neighbour downstream, holding the oxbow together. 6.96m in girth an Ancient Tree. Black and white image.


What a beautiful, colorful time of year! The red and gold foliage of the Maple Trees come together in the sky for a wild fall party. You have to love the stunning, vibrant Autumn leaves all dressed up in their best colors to stimulate the senses.

Today at the zoo I heard what sound the cassowary makes. Holy Jurassic Park, Batman... 😱

Licorice ferns grow all over the sides of big trees in the forests of the Pacific Northwest. These are covering the branches of a Bigleaf Maple.

Fern fronds everywhere. The frame is filled with fronds pointing in all directions. The fronds are backlit, and the spore structures are really visible that way - symmetrical lines of dark dots, two rows per leaflet on the frond.


A post I made on FB about my favorite animals led to a whole lot of people realizing that pink fairy armadillos are an actual thing, and it is delightful to watch 😆

I guess I'm now spreading the gospel of the pink fairy armadillo. They are real, y'all.

#armadillos #animals #nature #cute
Pink fairy armadillo. A small, tube-shaped creature with soft beige fur on the underside, and pink sectioned armor on its back. Small black beady eyes, tiny pink nose, large pink digging feet. The butt is flat, and serves as a plug when the armadillo burrows into a hole.
