Transmogrification
The snow fell, and so did an old tree, overcome by time, weight, and shallow roots.
And we could see that it was turning into something else....

And I bet you didn't let Flossie carry it home?!
When I saw that first photo, I was reading Flossie's mind: "Wow, another big stick!".
I saw that too. Great photo find.
You could have taken the tree back home and cut it up for logs for Malcolm ......
How beautiful !
When some really old trees were cut down in town for a road-widening scheme , some locals asked the workmen for a slice of the trunk . And , miraculously , the workmen obliged .Lovely souvenirs .
An elephant loose in the woods is certainly going to cause a stir when its transmogrification (great word!!) is complete.

That's clever, having eyes to see that.
Florence is still a proper dog shape, not fat like so many labs, including Benno. But then Benno is 11 now, not a mere sprig like Flo.
Cool!! You've got a good eye..
What a shame, but it's not so bad when they fall of natural causes. I hate to see them being felled in town just because they were planted in the wrong place to start with.
I`m glad I`m not the only one to see faces in trees.....Your photos made me think of the Ents in Lord of the Rings.
Sad to see a fine old tree downed by the winter winds.
Oh, how I do love your photos but hate to see such a lovely old tree down.
And, perchance were you referring to the transmorgrifier in Calvin and Hobbes? We all know where THAT always led...lol!
That's a bit alarming...
Oh yes, an elephant. What a discovery.
Flossie looks so small next to that trunk.
Oh my goodness! That's great!
An elephant tree! bryn likes big 'sticks' too!
Oh! That is WONDERFUL! That's how fairy tales began, I bet.
What a fabulous find. Lucille directed me to your post after viewing my post showing another version of Nature's art:
