Birch

Birch trees are my favorite trees.  I think it's because we didn't have many trees in our yard growing up, but we did have a cluster of big birch trees.  We swung from them, climbed on them, picked caterpillars off of them, watched them bend down to the ground when covered with heavy snow in the winter, and eventually watched them be replaced by younger birches that sprung up in the same cluster.

I've noticed that birches have been pretty popular for home decor lately.  Here are some examples.
