We feel blessed to have a massive live oak in our yard. Does it get messy? Absolutely....but it is also absolutely worth it to us to have this magnificent tree in our yard. An American Bald Eagle hunts from the tree with her mate and brings her fledgling around, also. Hawks, owls, herons and other birds come to the tree to hunt or roost.
I love the swaying moss hanging from the massive branches. The tree is a thing of beauty...a great wonder to me.. and I will be a good steward for the tree as long as possible.
