Is that one of those trees that drops big wads of “cotton” all over everything?
Achhoooo!

Nancy,
Thank you! That tree is just so beautiful and almost looks like it’s on fire right now… I had to post pictures for posterity. 🙂

It is gorgeous! And it’s a cottonwood? By the way, did you ever give the boys some pumpkins? I’d love to see those pic’s!

Nancy,
Yes, it’s a cottonwood.
And yes, we gave the boys a pumpkin while Don’s sister was here. I quartered one and put it out in the corral for them and they couldn’t have been less interested. Today, I put a whole pumpkin out in the corral… I figure at least it’s something for Bernard to play with. Nothing exciting yet, but we’ll keep you posted. 🙂

We don’t get much color around here. Our trees are mostly Live Oaks and they keep their leaves until spring.
I LOVE trees though–most are so photogenic. Your black and white version is so cool.

Absolutely, yes. I’m working on learning Photoshop Elements, but for the moment am using picnik.com.

Beautiful shots of a beautiful old tree. I’m assuming it’s old. It looks HUGE. Must have taken quite a while to achieve that size.
Looks like a great climbing tree too. Have you ever tried it out ? I would have … well maybe not recently, but in my younger days.

Gayle,
I’m thinking it’s pretty old. I suppose I’ll have to do a little more research to make a guesstimate of its age. A grand old tree it is… and now that you mention it, it does look like a great climbing tree!

Wonderful! I didn’t realize cottonwood would become such a blaze of color. Love the different treatments, and I refuse to pick a favorite! 🙂
We were in a grove of cottonwoods once in the early summer when they were dropping their cotton. It was mesmerizing, the white seeds floating on the breeze, warm weather snowflakes drifting through the brilliant blue sky and red mesas behind them.
When I saw the scene in the movie pandora with the spirit tree and the tiny “seeds” floating, I instantly thought “cotton wood.”
