Natural wood spirit..

[Corso]

We had a witches tree in the corner of my infants school

Can't see it now mind but at the time.....

Tim Burton themed mermaids purse, sunbathing... Okay, its a construct, but the stone isn't.

 

[Harvestman]

Excellent!

That natural tree spirit you enhanced in OP will literally scare the living daylights out of some random magic mushroom muncher wandering that woodland one day

Haha that made me guffaw out loud. Many thanks.

Was my first thought when i seen your pics, always good to share the mad thoughts now and then

 

[Freelander]

Found this at Frithsden Beeches, not sure if this had not been carved at sometime or perhaps Harry Potter did it!

I also found this 'croc', the photo does not realy do it true justice but it looked really good alongside the path in Ashridge.

 

[Harvestman]

Ah the leaf-litter crocodile. Quite a rare species that one. I think yours is a juvenile.

Here's an adult

 

[Dean]

Seen the adult in the flesh and I can say it is a rather large adult.

Very good, see what you mean

Remember though

"Never smile at a crocodile
No, you can't get friendly with a crocodile
Don't be taken in by his welcome grin"

Stone watcher, found up the hills yesterday.

 

[Harvestman]

Very neat. It took a moment, but that is a good one.

Thanks, I had just faffed a shelter in driving rain, against this massive boulder, and it caught my eye.

on the bottom photo to the left of skeletor there is another face more like a Face mask from Star Wars.

Is there? Could you cut out a square and post it? I can't make it out, but I'm no star wars fan..

Cthulhu lives! Specifically he lives in an ancient yew tree in the village of Defynnog.

Two others, from oak trees near the canal at Llanover:
A long face

Grumpy stumpy

The Yew shot is brilliant, well spotted. The bark oozes age doesn't it. Never seen a yew like that, reminds me of molten rock.
I've got to get over and see it soon methinks.

You are right about that tree oozing age. That is from probably the oldest tree in Wales.
