Cottonwood leaves

Cottonwood leaves –

Here is a cottonwood leaf.  I love these leaves.  They make a heart shape.  They are beautiful.  They are my favorite trees.

Cottonwoods grow in the canyons and creek beds around Colorado.  They can only grow on good consistent water.  Sitting under them you hear them whisper as their leaves click-clack back in forth in the slightest breeze.
