Yes! I am trying to imagine how it formed. Did the appearance of twist grow out from center as a result of cell structure when new layers of tree growth were formed? Or, did the branches literally move the direction they are pointing slightly each year as new layers of bark twisted? How interesting would that be if a tree really twisted slowly over the decades and a north facing branch, in time, faced west?
What a wonderful tree! It makes me think it’s twisting around to look at everything around it!
