All in a line

In this area of France, the Aube, everything seems to grow and grow. They plant trees in orderly lines, and they grow fast and then they come and cut them down, haul them away and plant more. Forgive me I am not sure of exactly what kind of trees they are...poplar, pine? Walking by these woods is like being in the best kind of factory ever.

Mistletoe grows in the trees! I did not know that mistletoe was a parasitic plant that lives in trees.

Birch! (P.S. I saw mistletoe for the first time when I was in France.)
