There is a special tree in Wales called The Lonely Tree. It stands in a lake and many people take photos of it. The tree looks beautiful in all seasons.
People love this tree very much. They come from far away to see it and take pictures. Many share these photos on social media.
But the tree might not live for long. It is a birch tree, which doesn't live very long in this area. The water around it makes its life even shorter. People hope the tree will stay for many more years, but its time may be limited.
