The wonderful Fairies Tree in Fitzroy Gardens Melbourne, Australia. Carved on the stump of a 300 year old gum tree this is the work of Ola Cohn who created it in the early 1930s to celebrate Victoria's centenary.
Her own words inscribed on a plaque say "I have carved in a tree in the Fitzroy Gardens for you, and the fairies, but mostly for the fairies and those who believe in them, for they will understand how necessary it is to have a fairy sanctuary - a place that is sacred and safe as a home should be to all living creatures."
Do you believe in fairies ?

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
Wow, what a fascinating tree and work of art...I think I believe in fairies now:)

Must be seen at full screen size to get a proper impression of these carved fairies. I didn't believe in the existence of fairies, but after viewing your fine photograph, I've still some doubts now, Lyn, 😁 .
