A giant, ancient, upside-down-looking-octopus-shaped Sitka spruce tree in the costal fog of Cape Meares, Oregon. The grass surrounding the tree is green, it’s foggy, and there are many other trees in the background. The fence surrounding the tree appears on the right and left of the photo, as I respectfully took this picture from outside the fence.

For #ThickTrunkTuesday, I bring you the Octopus Tree, an ancient Sitka spruce with no central trunk - just all these arms. Also, a comment below. #OctopusTree #PNW #OldGrowthForest #Forests #Fog #Nature #Photography #Hiking #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice

Let's hope this is an #OctopusTree
that grows a new arm
after the old rotten one
is severed.
