Tricking tree

Since it is April Fool's Day, I thought of writing about this interesting tree that I saw while biking up the Shotgun trail in San Mateo, Rizal.

From afar, when I looked at this tree, I thought that it was like other trees at that time which was in full flower. But when I went near the tree to see what kind of flower it bears, I realized that what I was looking at were the silvery underside of the leaves of the tree and I certainly was fooled by that tree.





The tree up close.



It is not just people but nature too can play tricks on our eyes as well. Happy April Fools Day.
