Not holly but misteltoe

Today I bring you mistletoe...soon will find some holly. This oak is the only one that I saw with mistletoe growing in it...on the earthen dam that forms Lake Tomahawk.

All the green you see on the oak tree is mistletoe.  Since this is at a park, it's unlikely the Black Mountain Parks Department will harvest it.  But perhaps some enterprising persons will.

Quote for today:

And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.

Meister Eckhart
