Tree Spirit

Do you see the spirit face in the tree branch?
I took this pic two days ago during a hike along the trails at Twin Lakes. The tree is gnarled and has been through a lot. It looked interesting so I shot from a few different angles.
I did not know the spirit face was there.
I'm glad he is. He seems quite protective of his tree and that's good as it's a very popular trail and the trees need protection.
Please click the photo to enlarge.

Cool beans, I saw the face! What a wonderful picture, and what a beautiful, grand and venerable tree. :)

Thanks, Thomma Lyn. Yes, it is a beautiful tree.

I can see at least three!, But I do have wonky eyes.

Fabulous tree, I am glad you shared him with us.

Three?! Good for you, Reb.
It is a fabulous tree. I am happy to share.

Beautiful tree, but alas, no faces for me! I'll come back and try again later... too much caffeine perhaps.

Crabby, look at the branch in the top of the photo at about the middle range. The one that's coming right out at you.

Thanks dfTerry. It was such a wonderful surprise to find this face. I am thoroughly tickled over it.

I'm on Frank's computer and he's looking over my shoulder. He found it right away.

Trees sure are wonderful that way.

Hilary, glad you and Frank could see it.
Trees are the best.

The Bag Lady saw it, too (she posted under the wrong account earlier!)

Thanks for the return visit and confirmation, dfBag Lady.
