talking tree at AK

[sue Z]

Love the talking tree at Animal kingdom who is the CM behind it and where are they? standing to operate the tree?

Now if we told you, wouldn't it ruin the magic of Wes Palm?

Wow, I've never noticed it! Where is this?

Unless it changed from my last visit, Wes Palm usually hangs out before the park opens outside the gates of AK.

Not to ruin any magic....
but if you look around the tree, sometimes there is a guy who is talking into what appears to be a microphone or walkie-talkier near the tree. But it's probably just a coincidence

Look for the guy with a leather type 'briefcase/backback thingy' on his back, actually on his bottom. (Like a reverse fanny pack but much larger)

He keeps one hand inside the pack to control the movements and if you look really close, he has a tiny microphone. This is the same for Wes Palm and the moving/talking trash cans. (Oh, and R2D2 also)
