A fist full of - rocks?
There are several spots where rocks get jammed into root masses during the spring floods. The first picture is one lone tree - or stump that won't die, I'm not sure which. The others are a root mass that involves too many trees, not all of which are standing or even there any more. I'd guess it extends about 8 feet from the bank into the river. The pictures don't cover the entire expanse, just the ends. The one rock in the 2nd and 3rd photos is about the size of a human's head.

SO the rocks kind of grow up into the roots as the tree gets bigger then?

it may also be that the rising water washes away the dirt leaving the rocks behind. there's an eerie quality to these shots that's quite effective.
