Trees

This tree was amazing. It's part of the Birch family but I'm not sure the exact name. It's been introduced to the park but the leaves were the most stunning part of the trip. They're bright yellow as you can see but the underside is pure solid white and fuzzy. The hairs help the tree keep moisture close to it's leaves and withstand the extreme heat but it felt very much like felt. I wish this picture really did the tree justice...
