That is a lot of trees - but list-making is one of my hobbies!! There it's out in the open - I've admitted it and confirmed everyones suspicions - I'm a loon!! I may do a worldwide list, but that really is a lot of trees - Canada alone has over 180 species!!!!!!

Just recieved permission to use this gorgeous image of a silver Birch from Mary at Mooseyscountrygarden.com ~ Thankyou


You can't really tell by looking but the Birch bark is silky smooth and glistens beautifully in the sun
