Do not look up trees that have birds above, or you may get a mouth full.
This is a pointer tree (not in the same layout as the previous pictures) which is made from oak. The vertical limb splits into 2 and just above the top of the picture both limbs have a beech limb grafted on them. The 2nd picture clearly shows this. You can see the fine line separating the rough oak bark below and the smooth beech bark above. Gave me chills when I found this tree and not because it was cold and rainy that day.

In my area I have found trees with carvings and trees that do not belong to the area that were brought from another area. Some trees I have done dendrochronology on to determine age so I know I am dealing with the right time frame.I have never seen one grafted that is an awesome find to come across I hope you have good luck with your quest thank you for sharing.
Impressive!I forgot to say that at the site I'm hunting in the desert, I have the same thing you mention. There are lots of Juniper trees. We found one pointer tree in this layout. The bottom half of it was Juniper and the top half was some unknown tree grafted on it. It really stood out because we hadn't seen a tree like it anywhere else in the area. They were/are some smart people.
Have a look at this massive one pointing 2 directions.
