     Find somebody who believes in dragons and you can make a mint with that tree.  That pic is amazing!

Not sure how big that is, but if it were the right size, and it were me, I'd paint a pupil on a softball and stick it in that eye hole. ;D

A softball would probably fit, maybe even something a little bigger. It's maybe 15' off the ground so just a guess.  Not sure it would be a good idea to cut it down.  Might be bad juju!  Probably end up breaking it off anyway if I tried.
Here is a little different angle.

It seems like it has more of a scary position to it.  Maybe black eyes with red pupils?    Or...... find a couple of green flashlights for eyes and take your date on a walk there at night.......yikes  :o :)

I was thinking it would be worth a lot of money if you cut it down and sold it, but then it occurred to me that it would probably be a bad idea to make it angry...
I haven't made up my mind if the cool outweighs the creepy.
