Sometimes you look at nature and wonder how on earth did that happen? I had that feeling when I found this full grown tree sprouting out of the wall of the fort at Banne.
I had watched the sunrise from the top of this fort, and as the sun started to climb over the low hills to the east I had a walk round the lower level if the fort to see how it looked in the low sun. The walls are sheer and glowed nicely in the golden light, but how that tree managed to take hold and thrive is beyond me. Oh and the view out across the vineyards in the valley below was quite wonderful.
