Update:
One of the stumps was taken in the summer when there was obscuring vegetation. Now I have a comp shot in the winter:

Another of a tree with a bent stump and it's still growing!

Poor old thing.

Looks like the woodpeckers like it, too.

When I visit my sister in La. we always go for a ride in their boat and I enjoy the different stumps and the changing of the vegetation.

I had to click on this thread because of the title. I am thinking what in the world could this be about?

Tree stumps can be sad too.

Love that head carving ^^^

I'm quite partial to a stump myself. Here's on in the woods last week. I liked the ray of light on it.

This is at the front gate of a large property in country Victoria Australia....note the letterbox slot carved into it too

This one is from a neighbors house. It was basically carved out by old age and woodpeckers.
