I think this may actually be the prettiest Christmas tree we've ever had. A little more expensive than I'd wanted to go, but there wasn't a lot of choices in the size range I was looking for. And it's just a perfect tree.
While putting on the lights, I discovered quite a lot of dead deciduous leaves of various species tucked in by the trunk. When I pulled out a particularly big handful, I discovered it was in fact a bird's nest. It was really cool and I kind of wanted to keep it on the tree, but Chuckro pointed out it was probably well soaked in bird shit. So I threw it out. A fun little discovery, though.
