This tree is the monkey flower, also called guacamayo. I wonder how that relates to guacamole? Wish I knew some Spanish!
While peering through the branches, twice I spied me a flash of silver "wings" – yes, fish can fly on the Caloosahatchee!
Barnebydendron riedelii, Central and South America
Cool tree!
It was real nice standing beneath it – lots of dense shade and a pleasant view.
