The walk of the young trees

Every day I walk for about an hour in my neighbourhood called, Nørrebro. Today, in the street called Asminderødgade, I saw some young ash trees which for some reason grabbed my attention. I have passed them many times without ever really looking at them, but today was different.

Here they are. The ash trees of Asminderødgade

The ash trees have had a hard time the last many years because of an evil fungi that has killed many of them. But I read once that they have found a variant that can withstand this threat and maybe these are of that resistant sort.

The space beneath is a chaotic bicycle parking lot. It has been very windy these last couple of days so everything is in disarray.

Here you can see the roots of the trees messing with the pavement.

The weather today was sunny, rainy, sunny again, dark, light, dark again. I started to take some photos of other trees as I walked on. Most of them young trees so you can appreciate the work of the local municipality gardeners.

Here are some newly planted trees at Nørrebro station, where there has been a lot of construction going on in connection with the new underground city ring metro.

Here's an older platanus tree in Arresøgade. The platanus is not really fit for the cold and windy Danish weather, but it is thriving in cities where it can get shelter among the tall buildings.

A young oak tree in Guldbergsgade.

And another oak tree in the same street with a cosy place for the locals.

The beautiful horse chestnut is quite common. This one also in Guldbergsgade.

The square where both Sjællandsgade Church, the old Bathing house and Guldbergsgade School is situated. A lot of newly planted trees here. In 50 years time it will become a stately place.

To finish off I have a picture of the trees of the graveyard, Assistens Kirkegård. In there you will find some very old trees some which goes back to the founding in 1760. Many famous people lies here. The physicist Niels Bohr, the writer Hans Christian Anderson, Philosopher Søren Kierkegaard and many more. The trees in there are beautiful and old, but I didn't go in there today as my walk had become the walk of the young trees. Maybe I'll go take some photos from in there another day.

The ski season officially ended in #Gatineau Park on 31 March 2022, so today we did a 8.5 km #hike to Lusk Cabin with a picnic lunch on the porch there. The trails were still covered in ice, making for an easy #walk.

The Abdopus Octopus is the Only Known Octopus to Leave the Water and Walk on Land

Abdopus aculeatus is a small octopus species in the order Octopoda. A. aculeatus has the common name of algae octopus due to its typical resting camouflage, which resembles a gastropod shell overgrown with algae. It is small in size with a mantle around the size of a small orange (≈7 cm) and legs 25 cm in length, and is adept at mimicking its surroundings.

A. aculeatus has been described as "the only land octopus",[1] because it lives on beaches, walking from one tidal pool to the next as it hunts for crabs. Many octopuses can crawl short distances on land when necessary, but no others do so routinely.
