Tree Tuesday Around Mondo Ponds

Y
This is a post for Tree Tuesday hosted by @old-guy-photos and for this week I will share a few shots around the Mondo Pond trails

The first shot is as I am walking down one of the paths on the trails around the ponds, as you can see the paths are surrounded by trees

Recently we have had Some quite strong winds come through and I didn't realize how strong there were as we had no damage near where I live, but as I walked around the trails, I saw quite a bit of damage such as this spot where you can see the one big tree snapped off, and a few other fallen trees in the foreground.

And in this last shot you can see a tree growing on a little rock island on the pond, the only tree in view from this spot with some color, the remaing trees in view all still pretyt bare.
The other thing I like about this shot is of course, the reflections on the water.

The trails around the water are a lovely walk and never that busy but there are always a few people walking around the trails, or as you can see in this shot on the right a couple of people by the pond fishing

Hope the list gives you some ideas, I know there are many more but those ones are the onesI remember and join from time to time, any more may have been information overload for you

Beautiful pictures. Any idea what type of trees those are. Cant tell if there pine or some type of cypress or something else completely different.

Water always seems to bring life to it. Even a small pond in my veg garden will be teeming with life of birds, frogs, insects within a day of my making it. We are all drawn to water, the giver of life :)

That it sure does, I have always wanted a big garden with a small pond and plenty of plants and flowers, but now as I get older my visions for our place where we retire will be smaller, but i would still love some sort of water feature

Wow, that is beautiful. It reminds me of some of the paths I used to walk along in Michigan's state forests when I was a kid.

Thanks it is a lovely little trail around the ponds not very big but so relaxing to walk round very calming

Very nice.
Some of the shots look like the eye-bleeding puzzles one of my sisters used to do..

Thanks Mate and Ohh yes I know the puzzles you wan I did a few when I was younger, my Siblings got annoyed how quick I could do there ones so one Christmas they all got me big and challenging jigsaws eye bleeding would have been. Good way to describe them

Beautiful forest in your area!

It’s a nice csmall area for taking a leisurely stroll and relaxing
Thanks for your visit

The first picture could be on my yesterdays' walk, actually it all looks quite similar to here - beautiful photos, my friend.

Funnily enough I just made a similar comment to you on another thread, Great minds think alike :)
