This image comes from a locally significant nature preserve, mostly unknown among people from the larger world. On my last visit a prominently placed chalkboard on a wall in the visitor center listed more than two hundred wildlife sightings, occurring within one week — from tiny lizards to bobcats to birds of many kinds. Trees grow thickly all over, yet few hikers notice the woodland around them in spite of its magnificence. It could be the trunks, limbs and foliage grow so densely intertwined they blur a person’s vision. Here is a rare specimen presenting itself alone and minimally encumbered.
