Visited the spookiest forest today and got caught in a freezing cold wind storm, but it was worth it for the pictures 💨

Getting big time LOTRs vibes from those trees!
Someone on Twitter said they look like ents and I had to Google it 😅🙈
I have watched LOTR though! And I 100% agree
OK so these are called Ocotea foetens, and are a paleoendemic species to Madeira and Canary islands. Very interesting species and I'm currently obsessed with their ecology. Very special place.
