Nice pics! Im sure that the birds there are taking a lot of that spanish moss for their nests now. I saw a bird here today with some of the (most-likely dead) spanish moss from my tree which definitely tells me spring is here!
Thanks for sharing!

Glad you enjoyed Alex!

Nice Pics I love the spanish moss

SIP, thanks, even though it's native here & common, i've always loved it!

Nice pics.dixieboy as usual.I wonder how old that live oak is?I like the look of the Spanish moss hanging from the trees.There's a red oak in the back of my neighbors yard that towers over all the other red oaks and white oaks.Just guessing I would say his tree is 300yrs old or older.We stood at the base of the tree and wrapped our arms around it and we couldn't come close to touching each others hands.My dad use to say,you don't plant a oak tree for you,you plant it for your grandkids.Keep taking those great pictures dixieboy.

Randy, that's the 'Airlie oak' & the plague underneath it says they estimate it be'in about 450 years old. Thanks

Randy, opps, that'a supposed to be 'plaque' instead of 'plague'! lol

Hey dixieboy,
That's a good picture of the Airlie oak with the lights shinning up on it.I wonder how old a Live Oak Tree can live?I really like the live oak trees when the get that big.My house is in what they call the historic district in Douglasville.Georgia is known for all the pine trees,but where I live it's all old growth forest,Red Oaks and White Oaks.There's not a single pine tree anywhere near my house.They set up a saw mill and cut down the trees they needed,to build the houses in my subdivision.The rest of the trees they let stay here.Most of the trees around here were here before Douglasville was here.A man that use to be my neighbor,he was 98yrs old when he told my father that story and he told me.I was about 10 or 12yrs old when he died at 100yrs old.Sorry to ramble,but that tells you why I love the big Oak Trees.I grew up with them and now growing old with them.LOL.Keep the pictures coming.

Laura,I decided not to leave here.I've lived here so long that no other place would ever seem like home to me.I've watched this town go from a little country town to a thriving city.Sorry I took so long to get back to you,I've been working a lot of overtime.I guess that's a good thing,but my body doesn't feel so good.LOL.
