birch forests
Pale-trunked tree stands
Birch forests are woodlands where birch trees—slender, white-barked deciduous trees—are the dominant species.
Found across northern temperate and boreal regions, they often represent transitional ecosystems, colonizing areas after disturbance before giving way to conifers or other hardwoods.
The birch forests of Scandinavia turn golden in autumn.
