A nurse log... It is common to see trees where the nurse log has entirely rotted away, living the roots supporting the tree in thin air....

Hair your pic of Nurse Log sure makes a good pic of an Ent foot!
BTW, Were you referring to Tolkien's reading of the Ent song and his Haroomping or was there a link of the TTT's Treebeard's voice?

Them's the legs.

There's one near us, on the McLane Park Nature Trail, where you actually walk on the trail underneath the roots, where a very large nurse log has completely rotted away. The space beneath the beginning of the trunk is over 6 feet tall. And the roots on either side look like large legs (after enough beer, that is).
