#Rustic #Forest, 2021

This was one of those days where I was excited to take wonderful photos in a forest I was visiting, only to find out most of the photos I took didn't turn out as the exposure and filter were all wrong. I decided to play around with this anyhow and ended up liking the rustic effect, like an old photo. You can be the judge. All a part of the journey, nonetheless.

Grey birch (Betula populifolia) looks very similar to its cousin paper birch (Betula papyrifera). The main difference is the lack of peeling bark on grey birch. It also tends to have dark splotches on the bark and darker branches.

Both are short lived pioneer species with lifespans of approx. 60-100 years.

Birches are an important food plant for rodents, ungulates and other mammals that browse the bark and twigs as a winter food source. Squirrels and songbirds feed on the catkins.
