Birch must be my favourite tree. These trees have a speciality in every seasons.

In spring, birch leaves often appear around the time of the 17th of May, the National Day of Norway. During the first days, the leaves have a bright yellow colour. The leaves are showing that life is back. It is so beautiful.

In the summer the leaves turn green, much like most trees. Birch trees are still a special sight because of their white stems.

In autumn the yellow colour returns, but with a more orange tone. In the autumn sun, the birch trees look like they are lit on fire.

And in winter, when the leaves have fallen off, and the trees are resting again, their white stem shines in the snow.
