I saw this old oak tree at Newgrange, County Meath, Ireland last winter. I think they are one of my favorite trees without leaves. Look at those branches!

Love those branches!
Me too. I wish I had an oak tree!
lovely tree
Thanks, yes it is!
Bare oaks always seem to be waving their branches. They don’t grow in any particular direction.
Yes, their random branch structure is part of their charm. 🙂
The branches look beautiful against the blue sky. 😊
Thanks! It was a cool winter day. Glad the skies cleared for that picture. 🌳
The fanciful creatures you could imagine from a dead tree often got me scared as a child.
When we were trimming trees on our property years ago, my daughter asked us to cut down one of them. It was a dead snag that looked like it had "arms." She called it the "ghost tree" and it scared her. We were worried it would blow down in a wind storm so we followed her wishes.
She must have been so grateful!
