Mail call................

This is our very old over-sized mailbox. After being hit by a car and having to be replaced with a new one, we put this old one in the crotch of this double-trunk tree in the woods at the edge of the yard. For many years now, the wrens and other birds have used it for nesting and to get out of falling wintry weather! It used to be black and shiny, but I love the natural patina of rust that Mother Nature has given it.

You come up with the most unique pictures. The mailbox in the trees is perfect.
