Wow, that's huge! And Momma got your Frankie Funny. I didn't.
I never knew that's what it was called!! I've seen some in our woods (on a much smaller scale) and taken pictures with the intent of posting it to see if someone knew what it was.
Now I'm off to see what kinds of things people make of these. :-0
Thanks Frankie!!
Frankie you are such a card.

I have to admit I thought the same like Ernie. Butt you can look at natureartists.com, they have a toad made of a burl what looks like a real one. Except that we look like a foam bath bottle when we eat it

Oh, I was going to say it was "another part" of the tree hanging out. BOL That burl is huge...not unlike Burl Ives himself. Oh, I crack myself up.
High paws,
Oz
Wow, that is amazing. We thought it was a little bear climbing the tree at first.

Ernie has no idea what brains look like. He doesn't see any when he looks in the mirror. I ought to know-it happens when I look in the mirror.
I did not knows that you could make things out of those burls. I do sees them all the time on hikes and mom always tries to guess what they looks like coz sometimes they looks like a face or an owl or whatefur. But she has not guessed tree brains yet. No doubt she will someday.
I thought it was Kim K's hinnie!!! BOL
(well, ya know, she be all overs the intermutts lately with her bare arse!)
That is odd and pawsome all at the same time! Kinda like bully's! hehehehehe
okays, maybe I should stop drinkin' the margaritas...nah!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
Burl I'ves....bwahaahaahaa! We've seen bowls made from burls. There are lots around here...burls, not bowls, but that's a fantastic one!
Roxy says that it DOES look like BRAINS!
Oh our mom loved Burl Ives!!! She used to see lots of things made from burls when she was a girl and lived in California and they visited some of the forests. People would make things like table tops from slices of big burls
hugs
Mr Bailey & Hazel
We love burl Ives AND Burls!! They have LOTS of Burl stuff up here in Redwood country, but we never saw one still on a tree before!! How cool!!!
Smileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo

Love ya lots♥
Mitch and Molly
I have never heard of a burl! I do however LOVE Burl Ives and never miss Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Mom says she has watched it since she was a little girl and was brought to us by an electric razor! BOL ♥ Loved the joke.
Nope....but we seen Burl Ives!

We have seen Burl wood used on the dashboard of a Jaguar. It was real pretty and smooth.
My dad would love to have some burl wood in his shop to make something.
We have never seen it on a tree before kind of look like brains BOL>

Seems like we saw some stuffs made from burls from redwood trees in the Muir Woods gift shop! BTW, Stanley is better this afternoon.
Your Pals,
MURPHY AND STANLEY
We have never seen anything made from a burl, in fact we didn't even know what a burl was until you showed us:) Mom says it looks just like the ugly lump on Phantom's tail:(
Maybe your Dad could cut that burl down and make something crafty with it.
Woos - Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning
That tree has a huge wart.
Crikey ... How funny's Ranger. Call the tree dogtur ... It's a hernia. You're all comedians, aye? Burl Ives, brains, babies ... Too funny? We got heaps of those things on our gum trees but we never knew they were called burls or that you made things out of them. Thanks for the info, aye? We call ''em Knobs! Crikey ... I hope that's not rude!
If something beautiful comes out of that ugly thing, I'll eat Mom's shoes. It looks like a hornet's nest that I saw once.
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Shhh, look! That tree has a gigantic wart!
Wow...never have seen anything like that!
Loved the Burl Ives play...(sigh) I do remember who he was. Some of my fondest TV specials. :-)
BRAINSSSSSSS!!!!
Sorry.
That's REALLY cool-looking!
Our mom remembers Burl Ives and liked your joke. I think Mom is like 87,000 years old.
