Bonsai growing on a tree: Sunday Trees

When I walked past this, I did a double take. It looked like a bonsai growing on this tree near Withers Lake, Oregon.

I imagined some woodland elf climbing up the ponderosa pine’s trunk to tend to this little tree. They must have trimmed and shaped it over many years. Is it dead or just dormant? Hmmm… there must be more to this story.
