Big tree

I can see this from my bungalow 
I call it the season tree.
In winter it's naked.
spring you can see buds of bright green.
Summer maroon catkins  fly through the air from it's great height.
Autumn you can see the yellow brown leaves starting to drift across my garden.

and there are quite a number of them too!  so I gather them up and keep in bins or bags and they turn into beautiful leaf compost.
