"At any rate the arms, at a short distance from the trunk, were not wrinkled, but covered with a brown smooth skin. The large feet had seven toes each. The lower part of the long face was covered with a sweeping grey beard, bushy, almost twiggy at the roots, thin and mossy at the ends. But at the moment the hobbits noted little but the eyes. These deep eyes were now surveying them, slow and solemn, but very penetrating. They were brown, shot with a green light. In my deep research of this subject (30 sec google -foo) someone actually asked how ents reproduce---now theres a rabbithole if ever I saw one. BTW - Ill be in all day to receive my "Pedant of year" award.

peachmonkey Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Ents are a species of beings in J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy world Middle-earth who closely resemble trees; their leader is Treebeard of Fangorn forest. They are similar to the talking trees in folklore around the world. Their name is derived from the Old English word for giant. what a buncha nerds.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mossy is not an Ent - it just grown at the end of their beards. I wonder how Geoffrey de Havilland was able to grab an Ent by its beard and cut a Mossy off of it.
