Welcome to the collection of images dedicated to amazing hollows—natural cavities carved into the trunks of trees, serving as homes for many forest inhabitants. Hollows can vary in size, shape, and depth, giving them a distinctive character, making each hollow unique. These cavities form due to various factors, including decay, lightning damage, or insect interactions, and naturally fit into the forest ecosystem.

In this collection, you will find photographs of hollows that stand out due to their shape and size. Hollows can be small, barely noticeable indentations or spacious recesses that can accommodate not only birds but also small mammals. Often, hollows are situated at heights, providing safe refuge from predators and serving as nesting sites for various species such as owls, sparrows, woodpeckers, and other forest birds.

The surroundings of hollows are also an important element of their natural context. It is common to see moss, lichens, and other forms of natural life growing around a hollow, adding a unique atmosphere to this corner of the forest. The change of seasons is reflected in the hollows; in autumn, they are framed by bright leaves, in winter they look picturesque with branches peeking through the snow, and in spring, they are covered in greenery.

By exploring hollows, you will discover not only the structure and form of this natural object but also understand the importance of hollows in maintaining biodiversity. These cavities serve as important ecosystem nodes, actively participating in the connections within the forest, where migration paths and animal interactions lead. We invite you to express your passion for nature through our collection of hollows, each photograph of which can become a wonderful part of your project or research.
