Backlit tree in front of my house...
I have two Paperbark Maples in front of my house, they were somewhat newly planted when I moved into this house 15 years ago, they had replaced some very old ailing trees, their peeling bark does create interesting effects. They did grow large enough to provide much needed shade for my garden in the afternoons.
Squirrels feed on its seeds in the Fall. I like seeing wildlife feeding as long as they leave certain things alone :) which they don't. There has been a pear frenzy in the back yard, just from neighbors pear tree slightly extending into my garden. Which I will tell another time.
please see large :)
