A series (in comments) from one of my favorite personal landmarks, a huge weather-worn stump, a reminder of the old growth forest which existed before much of Wisconsin's forests were clear-cut to supply a fast-growing America the lumber it demanded at the turn of the 19th century. For those interested, some amazing photos of those unenlightened times may be seen here: www.wisconsinhistory.org/Content.aspx?dsNav=Ntk:All|Lumbe...

 

In any event, the mosses now provide a year round miniature landscape within the confines of this ancient giant, accented by different highlights depending on the season. Here, fallen leaves provide a ground cover just as they do everywhere.

  

This squirrel was posing in a noble stance on one of our wood rounds. They sure have been busy over the last month preparing for winter!

On a recent visit to a local woods, I found myself being drawn back to this old tree stump surrounded by the bluebells

Wikipedia: The stump-tailed macaque (Macaca arctoides), also called the bear macaque, is a species of macaque native to South Asia and Southeast Asia. In India, it occurs south of the Brahmaputra River, in the northeastern part of the country. Its range in India extends from Assam and Meghalaya to eastern Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura.

 

It is primarily frugivorous, but eats many types of vegetation, such as seeds, leaves and roots, but also hunts freshwater crabs, frogs, bird eggs and insects.

 

It is distributed from northeastern India and southern China into the northwest tip of West Malaysia on the Malay Peninsula. It is also found in Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. It is possibly extinct in Bangladesh. No global population estimate is available. In Cambodia, a declining population of 230 is reported from Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary.

This tree stump has been underwater for about 50 years. It was cut down to create a lake many years ago. Lake is down for repair.

What a view this poor stump has on the Kilbrannish Looped Walks. Spectacular views of Co. Wexford and Co. Wicklow which on this day, it was animated by dark showers and brilliant sunshine.

An old tree stump on the shore of Lake Ullswater in the Lake district, early on friday as the moon was visable for a short time before the mist rolled in

A lovely morning with hanging mist. The path leads one to the 6th green of the Bunclody Golf and Fishing Club.

This stump supporting the large pot was an elder tree deposited as a seed forty years ago by a passing bird no doubt. It grew and grew and as we aged together I became weaker and it became stronger, pushing down my fences and scattering dye filled berries everywhere. When my friend who made red wine from the berries and white wine from the flowers passed away and I became less able to control its growth I had it reduced it to a stump. I felt guilty but it did make a good stand for the pot.

To uproot the old stump, they had to resort to the help of fire.

Pay attention to the green blade of grass at the bottom of the frame. Life goes on!

Just playing around...thought this looked really cool. I just inverted the colors and this is what happened to my stump in the ice.
