Winter green

I looked out of our kitchen window this morning & thought I was seeing things...could have sworn this tree was starting to grow leaves in the middle of winter!
On a closer look it was just the green algae covering the branches, the grey clouds & the sun did the rest!

Three good things:
1. The special solution that Harry sprayed on our house walls on Saturday actually looks like it’s worked already! The green is definitely less & we are very pleased! It will keep improving & working too apparently!
2. Another episode of The Crown watched...up to 1959 now!
3. Harry is out tonight so a M&S Singapore noodle meal for me....Yummy!

A lovely old tree - I hope the ivy will not strangle it , Another 365er posted an image of a tree covered in green algae ,only the other day - it must be all the damp weather we are having ! So good the anti algae spray is working on the house walls !

Lovely tree and atmospheric light.. Reminds me of a English series i remember seeing when i was a kid.. Think it was called Lightning Tree..

[Sarah Bremner]

That's a beautiful tree.....and light makes all the difference to the view! Enjoy your tea!!

@sarah19 I didn’t much...quite disappointing! I won’t buy another!

[Pat Knowles]

@julzmaioro Yes have heard about the lightening tree but can’t remember in what context!

This is a gorgeous image of your tree. You must’ve thought spring had arrived early! I have just started reading ‘Lady in Waiting’ - Anne Glenconner.

[Jane Pittenger]

Does look green especially against the grey sky

[Maggiemae]

It does have a definite hint of green. I see that a lot on trees and apparently it doesn't do the tree any harm!

[Maggiemae]

@dide That was just published in October last year, Diane!Think it will be popular!

[Dianne]

@maggiemae yes - it had good reviews so I have it on my kindle - it’s very good so far.

[Taffy]

It certainly looks like the tree thinks it's spring.

[KWind]

Gorgeous! FAV.

[Nick]

Ha, sometimes we have to do a double take.

Beautiful capture of this lovely tree. Ominous sky in the background.

Instant favourite. Just love the drama of a big lonely tree like this. Hope it can fight off the algae and ivy.

I, too, got the same impression when I saw your photo, I like the majestic tree standing proud in the middle of the winter bareness.
