Welcome to the collection of images dedicated to tree hollows — unique and often undervalued elements of the forest landscape! A tree hollow is a natural cavity in the trunk of a tree, formed by decay, damage, or insect activity. These hollows can be found in various types of forests, from coniferous to deciduous, and provide a vital habitat for many organisms.

Each tree hollow is a completely unique microcosm full of life. Some hollows serve as homes for birds, such as owls and tits, which use them for nesting and protection from predators. Inside these cavities, one can often find a multitude of insects, fungi, and even small mammals, all playing a key role in the forest ecosystem. The presence of hollows helps maintain biological diversity by creating an ideal habitat.

Tree hollows can vary significantly in size and shape; some can be large enough to accommodate a person, while others may be merely small depressions barely noticeable at first glance. These cavities can appear differently depending on the season and the condition of the tree: in winter, they may be framed by frost or snow, while in warmer months, they are surrounded by lush greenery of the forest vegetation.

Here, in our collection of images, you will find high-quality photographs of tree hollows that can be used completely free of charge. We aim to reflect the diversity of tree hollows, their surroundings, and their connection to life in the forest. These images will help you better understand how small details of nature can be so significant and how they contribute to the preservation of the ecosystem as a whole. Don't miss the opportunity to explore this amazing aspect of forest biology!
