Breathe!
I assume the roots are moving with the trees due to wind but dang that looks like a cool effect
Yeah, it is super easy to understand why ancient folk believed in monsters, spirits, and the like, because nature is ducking weird.
This is what they meant when they said the mountain was seen to be breathing

Crown shyness
What an interesting word. 😀
“Crown shyness is a phenomenon observed in some tree species, in which the crowns of fully stocked trees do not touch each other, forming a canopy with channel-like gaps.“
How do the trees know not to touch each other?
Nobody knows though it’s been studied since the 1920′s.
Looks like distant rivers in the sky! Beautiful

in finland’s riisitunturi national park, siberian spruce trees become covered with tykky, a hard rime formed as supercooled water droplets in fog freeze to the windward side of the tree branches. some trees can collect as much as three to four tonnes of this white ice, which is less dense than the familiar clear ice. photos by (click pic) eki ollila, sara winter, pekka koski, rafael rojas, and hanneke luijting
I walk outside to take out the trash and see this. Aw yeah, one more cloud formation off the bucket list. (For reference, this is a fallstreak hole.)
