#fallentrees

Smokey Pete, a budding dendrologist, investigates a fallen chestnut oak (Quercus montana). . . . While it’s sad to see these fallen giants, their absence leads to gaps in the canopy. These gaps allow for more sunlight to hit the forest floor, setting the stage for the next generation. Plus, decomposers will eventually cycle the tree’s nutrients back into the ecosystem. Fallen trees, therefore, are a sign of overall forest health. . . . #treetyoself #trees #plants #dendrology #nature #natural #outdoors #forest #forestry #hiking #woods #treatyourself #stringersridge #chattanooga #treesofchattanooga #scicomm #sciencewriting #fallentrees #chestnut #oaks #quercus #montana #dogsofinstagram #husky (at Stringer's Ridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtozdJ8Asjd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tntjktctxsui

Fallen trees as far as the eye can see. This was the route the flood took a couple of years ago. 😮 Still a beautiful area. 😊 🌄🌄🌄🌄🌄🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🏞️🏞️🏞️🏞️🏞️🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲#fallentrees #treefall #aftermath #trees #path #exploring #explore #alberta #canada #photography #nature #timber #washedout #flood #mothernature

Forest Textures Walking around the lake the textures and shapes of the forest are impressive. I have admired this fallen tree on each visit. I spent some time with it on this visit admiring the lines and textures. #foresttextures #fallentrees #scenestoremember #buntzenlake #texturestoexplore #mytravellinglens #buntzenlaketrail (at Buntzen Lake, Anmore, B.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnR8ADtLRyu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
