This ancient goat willow is half-tree, half-octopus!

It may have been broken by a Cumbrian storm, but is still very much alive - and supporting lots of other life too. One of my favourite trees 💚

The multiple sprawling trunks of an old goat willow, covered in brilliant green moss, lie spreadeagled across a forest floor in late winter like the arms of a giant tree-octopus. The tree lives and has sent up many smaller vertical trunks from the fallen ones. Some pretty groups of snowdrops are in the foreground.
