RE: Paper trees
That's a very nice story. I did have a look on the ground to see if the bark had flaked off, but there was nothing but leaves. The bark colours are beautiful.

Thank you. Maybe someone used the bark to write to someone they knew. Or a squirrel used it for a nest. So many possibilities, so few..barks? These trees are beautiful, and the moss/algae makes them even more so. At first glance, the tree banding in your photo looks almost made-up.
We have some river birch in the area that have darker brown bark, not as good for letter writing, but gorgeous colors for photography/painting.
The blush coloured bark is unusual and eye catching, it was the strip's of that colour that drew my attention to the tree.
Copper birch trees are also very beautiful but I haven't come across one on my recent travels.
