I've been trying for an hour to get this tree to tell me the name of the guy on first base.
Mmmm.....I guess I could be barking up the wrong tree.
The trees have eyes in the Haunted Forest.

I don't think it would be apt to apply the old adage "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" in this instance !!
"Anyone else would just have carved 'Fred luvs Mary', but oh no, you had to be Michaelangelo"

David Attenborough: I'm here with my camerman, Frank, and we're looking for the extremely rare chameleon owl. If we slowly approach this tree, we may be able to view this amazing bird in its native habitat. Yes, look! There it is! Up on that branch. No, I'm not kidding, Frank. It's really there. Don't you see it? Well, then just film the tree, Frank! No, don't go any closer, they can be very dangerous if threatened. Frank no! Look out!
Frank: Eeeeooooowwwwwwaaaaahhhhhhhhh!
David Attenborough: I think I'm going to need a new cameraman.

Tre(e)mendous answers so far!
Still lots of time for more contenders to come out of the woodwork, though, so keep 'em coming!

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does anyone still give a hoot?

I think that's Treebird from the new Lord of the Rings parody.
Woodsy Owl demonstrates his skill in the Advanced Art of Camouflage.

Lively competition this week! Nice to see so many great entries sprout up. I hate to ruffle feathers by choosing just one, but I've gotta go with chrissie's Ent riff, "I think that's Treebird from the new Lord of the Rings parody." (Though somewhere poor Tolkien is rolling over in his grave.)
Congrats, chrissie, and well done all around, everyone!
