honey locust thorns
once warding off mastodons
now… keeps birdies safe 🦊❤️
I stood looking at the fierce thorns on a Honey Locust tree. Their original purpose was to protect the tree from plant eating Mastodons thousands of years ago. Today a bird’s nest is cradled by the razor sharp thorns to provide its temporary inhabitants safety. Nature is amazing… 🦊❤️
