Is there anything more beautiful than a grove of birch trees? Their white bark reflects the light and shadow colors around them. Add snow, which is also reflecting and refracting light, and you have a flickering glowing show of sunlight and the pastel shadows of winter's cast. Now put them on the edge of an island with the sparkling sea behind them. Heaven on Earth. We saw these while staying on Great Diamond Island a few weeks ago. They were wonderful company on the almost empty island. Is there anything more beautiful than a grove of birch trees? Their white bark reflects the light and shadow colors around them.
