🌳 1Tree 🇸🇪

Ireland's native Rowan trees are at the peak of their beauty bedecked in countless red berries awaiting the arrival of flock upon flock of migrating birds who will strip the trees on days as they seek to refuel 🪶🍒 But this is just one of many of the Rowan trees gifts to wildlife and, indeed, ourselves. For the arrival of the great flocks of birds coincides with the darkening of days and the thinning of the veil between world and The Other 🌙 Not only does the red of the Rowans berries deter all forms of evil magic but they also stop a vampire in its tracks. For as Sesame Street taught us as children a Vampire stalking our homes at night is compelled to count 🦇 Confronted by a Rowan planted outside a home the creature of the night finds itself rooted to the spot counting the thousands and thousands of berries until, finally, the rising sun forces them to retreat keeping us safe and the blood untouched within our veins ⚰️
