WEEPING TREE IN THE SPRING

TOP
This is the weeping tree! When I posted last I explained how it "weeps" water, and how I thought it was pulling the water from the creek. These are the first pictures I have taken since spring hit.
As you can see there is clearly water running down the side of the tree in that distinct area. Over the winter that exact area would frost over, or completely dry out. This fall I discovered that sometimes the tree would weep so much that the ground would even get wet. I cant explain the reason it weeps more some days than other days. This tree remains a huge mystery to me, and I intend to figure out the reason it weeps befor the school year ends!

  1. This is really interesting! I love the name you've given the tree, also. Its always fun (but sometimes frustrting!) to find mysteries in nature. I also like your use of pictures; without them it would be hard to visualize this strange occurance. Good luck solving the mystery!
