Tree Believers

Well I understood where the elephant protesters were coming from, but this may be taking things a little too far.  This tree is on P St. between 17th and 18th, and even though I walk by the spot regularly I can’t say I’ve noticed an abundance of things nailed or pinned to the tree.  The second item I would note is that this sign, protesting pins in trees, was itself pinned to the tree.  Am I missing something?

Nice tree drawing in any case.  It reminds me of the scary trees in the Wizard of Oz that throw apples at Dorothy.  ”She’s stealing our apples!”  I suppose this tree is supposed to be sad though, not mean.
