What could be better than homes with TREES on Nature Friday.
Driving through some of our streets is like being hugged by Mother Nature. I am a True Tree Lover/Hugger.
I asked CoPilot to help me say why I love trees,
Trees are not just silent observers of our world; they are lifelines for our environment.
Trees are like nature’s air filters. Through a process called photosynthesis, they absorb carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas) and release oxygen.
They provide habitats for countless species—birds, insects, mammals, fungi, and more
Water Management: Trees act as natural sponges. Their roots absorb rainwater, preventing floods and replenishing groundwater
Last but not least, tree provide us with Emotional Well-Being: The mere presence of trees has a calming effect on our minds. Urban green spaces provide respite from the hustle and bustle, reducing stress and promoting mental health.
Some of these trees are prettier than the homes. But some of the yards have so much shade that I wonder if they ever see the sun. But that could be a good thing living in Florida.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful trees. I do think they add a lot to a home.
ReplyDeleteI do love these...I love the ones where the trunks are so interesting and love how the top spreads out in that first photo.
ReplyDeleteAfter living in the Wastelands (aka, Arizona) so long, I LOVE our trees. Even the leaves!
ReplyDeleteThe only times I'm not so fond are when severe weather threatens and I worry that one will come crashing down on the house. That actually happened to a church friend; she and her family had to move into an extended stay hotel for almost 6 months.
I could not agree with you more. I love trees and they are lifelines to us. The street was beautiful - what I worry about is the roots into the houses there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful tribute to trees! There is nothing more lovely than a street lined with trees.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even notice the houses in the pictures. I was too busy looking at all the trees.
ReplyDeleteI love all the big beautiful trees we have here in Florida. I stood under one yesterday and remarked at how much cooler it was under the shade of the tree...with a nice breeze! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteHanging out on lunch break enjoying the shots of trees. They are my most fave of all of nature. Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love trees. I guess that's why we love living where we do. There is so much landscaping and trees everywhere.
ReplyDeletethey give me a peaceful feeling..which I need after being with Lynne today. I hate Alzheimers...

Yet still we destroy trees……..
ReplyDeleteThose are such beautiful big old trees! Hey, glad you liked our flamingo today!
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful and we need to plant more trees all over the place. We need to replenish what has been cut down over the years.
