Ecology : Old Tree

I took this photo of a very old tree in one residential compound in Antipolo. The tree is about a century old by the look of its trunk. I just feel good that the owner has preserved it and taken good care of it. A lot of the century old trees in Metro Manila are gone. Some were  fell down for the sake of development and progress( like road widening, etc.) Some were fell down by nature itself (typhoons, termites, etc). These old trees are living monuments and historical landmarks it's a pity if someday all of them will be gone.
