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.

A colossal, ancient oak tree dominates the foreground, its massive, gnarled trunk deeply furrowed and split open in places, revealing hollows and textured inner wood. Moss and lichen cling to its rough bark. Lush green leaves crown the upper branches, visible against a bright, partly cloudy sky. The tree is surrounded by vibrant green grass, with other trees and distant foliage creating a verdant backdrop under the summer sun.

A towering, ancient oak tree with a massive, gnarled trunk and a broad canopy of vibrant green leaves dominates the centre of the image. A gravel path curves around the base of the tree on the right, where two people, one with a dog on a lead, are looking at the tree. The sun shines brightly, casting light on the tree and illuminating the lush green grass and surrounding foliage. In the background, other trees and a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds are visible.

The table in the foreground is made of wood from a 619 year old white oak tree that grew in the churchyard. A young (~20 year) tree grown from an acorn of the old tree is growing in back of the church now.

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

An ancient oak tree in winter, a squat wide trunk, spreading branches bare in the frost fills the frame, the sky above fades from pale grey to blue, a wooden fence protects the tree from deer. Frost covered rust red bracken lies broken in the foreground. This majestic tree has looked over these open fields for over six hundred years

Heres a 500 year old oak for you. This oak is in the grounds where I am staying and the camera simply can't capture its scale, majesty and gracious personhood.
