Best Answer

Sound waves reflect off branches and leaves. So while sound may travel unimpeded across a desert floor, a meadow, or (especially) a still lake surface, the myriad interruptions provided by forest canopy tends to dampen and insulate sound vibrations.

Trees are good absorbes of sound energy because the leaves in the tree reflect and scatter the sound everywhere. The leaves can also absorb some of the sound.
