I live in a National Trust cottage, and it’s surrounded by big old oaks, even one in my garden…gorgeous, majestic trees…and, yes, I do hug it! 🌳🤗🖤

That’s so wonderful! Nature makes me very emotional, it’s such a beautiful, spiritual feeling 🥹 And rightly so with the tree hugging, these enormous trees love a human hug, it gives them energy to grow bigger and stronger 💚🤎 I have Lime trees out the back and a mahoosive oak out the front. The wildlife, particularly this time of year is really something, who needs TV when this spectacle is right there?!! Lately the woodpeckers are very active and the squirrels are skippy in their mischievousness. The Jays are making everyone nervous and the crows are loving each other 🖤 I absolutely adore this time of year. 🫶🏼 What birds do you have in your neck of the woods? Do you have red squirrels? They’re all cheeky grey ones here down south!
