I love the beautiful bark on Sycamore trees. Although, the actual tree Zacchaeus climbed in the Bible story was a Fig Sycamore, I am still reminded of the children’s chorus when I gaze at a sycamore tree. In our area Sycamore leaves begin drying out and falling long before other trees. We don’t find them very colorful, although I have read in other areas of the country they will exhibit a bit of gold.
The story of Zacchaeus – Luke 19:1-10
This post is part of Friday Skywatch.
Am a week late, but when I saw your sycamore on last week’s Sky Watch, I was curious, and am happy I did. Since I didn’t realise Zacheus climbed a sycamore:)

The sycamore he climbed was not this type, it was more of a fig, at least I think so. But still…whenever I see our type of Sycamore I think of the children’s chorus. I loved singing it when I was young.
