Cut leaf Japanese Maple

I clearly ought to get up early and wander around with the camera more often.  This is the smaller of the two original Japanese maples, a fine cut-leaf type.  I believe they were somewhat common in early twentieth century landscaping, I saw two specimens, not as big, on an estate in Norwalk.  Tends to be sort of life-size bonsai if that makes sense.  It has, for all intents and purposes, stopped growing; although it is clearly larger than it was in photos from the 1950’s, but the essential shape is unchanged.

The chipmunks and red squirrels love it.
