Some of my favorite trees in the Seattle area (or throughout the PNW for all that matter) are the Pacific madrones (Arbutus menziesii). They're also known as madrona, arbutus and other names, typical of what we humans do with "biological classifications". I think they're some of the most striking trees in the forest understory, with their red/yellow/orange bark popping in among the darker hued redcedar and fir. These are actually in the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle, but the shot captures the trees' lithe twisting forms just as well as along the coastline.
