Turkey Tracks: My Absolute Favorite Tree

My Absolute Favorite Tree

For the past eight years, I’ve driven by this tree and wanted to stop and take a picture of it.

This week, on the way home from weekly Tuesday shopping in Belfast at the Coop, I pulled off the road and snapped away.  It’s just south of Lincolnville Beach center, on the right.

I think I love this tree–an old oak–best in the winter because you can really see the tree’s skeleton.  I’ll stop next summer and take a picture of this tree when it is all leafed out.  It’s spectacular then, too.

Here’s a view of the trunk:

The rock wall is typical up here in Maine.  This one is a beauty.

Enjoy!
