Across the U.S. there are numerous strange, weird and outright wacky things that the duck has seen.

Belonging in this category is a tree in Athens, Georgia.

However, this is no ordinary tree.

 

For this tree owns itself.

As the former owner William Jackson wrote:

"For and in consideration of the great love I bear this tree and the great desire I have for its protection for all time,
I convey entire possession of itself and all land within eight feet of the tree on all sides."

With things like this in the world, no jokes are necesary.
