A magnificent #TwinTrunk #Oak from my hike the other day.

For #ThickTrunkTuesday, I have a symbol of resilience for you: an #oak #tree that is still going strong despite a massive #canker. The tree may be from the late 1500s when the #park was founded as a hunting area and breeding/research compound, today it's next to the moose enclosure of #SababurgZoo.
The tree has a height of around 27 metres and a circumference of more than 6,6 metres (below the canker). The hollow #trunk houses a hornets' nest and visitors are asked to be cautious. As you can imagine, it's a popular photo spot.

The Royal Oak in Richmond Park, I've posted this tree before, I photographed it in a late spring covered in fresh green leaves, this time it was cold and it's bare branches coated in frost, this tree has stood for over 600 years and compared to many around it it is small, but wide, amazing to think this tree stood when Henry VIII hunted here. #tree #OakTree #AncientOak #RichmondPark #RoyalOak #Nature #NaturePhotography #Photography #Winter #WinterVibes #BeautifulEngland #AltText
