Tree crown shyness is a natural phenomenon where the crowns of fully grown trees avoid touching each other, creating distinct gaps or channels in the forest canopy. This growth habit may have several advantages: minimize competition for sunlight, crown shyness helps to prevent wind damage, the distance may minimize, spread of diseases and pests & may facilitate a kind of communication between trees. 🌳 #biology #nature #science #Reels #ecology
