This is or was the tallest tree in Wales. It was damaged by storms and they were going to have to fell the rest until an artist came forward and asked permission to sculpt it into this...

That is brilliant Michael! :Thumbsup: ... At Newmillerdam woods near me, a few years ago they started calving felled tree stumps into animals such as this one...

Found this from a Chinese site and wondered if it was real... or photoshop? ... what do you guys think? ... I don't know, but if it's real, then surely must be some kind of record! :Unsure:

:Tongue: Hope that's not you on the floor Auggie! ... i'm too far away to pop over in time to help with my trusty old catapult .
... seriously though, ... I read that they are not poisonous enough to finish you off, ... but their bites are said to be aggressive and make you feel mighty unwell for a while.... so be very careful my friend. :Thumbsup:

Cheers Auggie.

Bialbero-Casorzo-2.jpg

Tourists flock to Piedmont to see Italy’s famous Double Tree. Here — on a much-visited site, between Grana and Casorzo — a cherry tree grows atop a mulberry. Science suggests that such a thing should not be possible. But there can be no disputing the facts. This place — and these trees — do actually exist.

Cheers.
