Looks like this tree needed a bit of support, so it put out a limb to steady itself...but I sure like that you took its picture, I have a feeling one day that tree will tip a bit too much. But if someone cut off that one, it would take away so much character. Thanx for such an interesting posting...verena
What a grand old tree. It looks like it needs help to stay upright in its old age. I like the way you framed the house through the tree, like having a picture within a picture.
