Rte 142 Maples

For two and a half years I became fascinated with this Maple tree. When it is spring and summer it looks like one big tree. In the fall it turns brilliant yellow and red. How can it be two colors ? After it's autumn peak and the it sheds its leaves it becomes clear that it is actually two Maples twisted around each other. They grew so close that they became one or does it look like one tree that is divided ?
