Woodland Tapestries 2

On a short walk today, I noticed the wonderful range of colours to be found on our native birch trees. Even on a dull day they stand out.

The ruby colours and peeling texture of the bark on younger sapling birch.

The smooth silver tones on the intermediate pole birch

The lichen covered older stems form shades of grey.

TIGER TIGER BURNING BRIGHT...

My favourite bark colour of the day!
