My Tree for the Year

This is my tree for the year. The idea came from lovely Michelle at Rambling Woods.  I chose our Sugarberry tree to observe for a year.  These photos were taken in January.  The bark is so mottled and beautiful. There are still no leaves on the tree today. One thing I have learned from experience is that the seeds from the Sugarberry will not come up unless they have gone through a bird's digestive system.
