Walling off the Last Sabal Palm Forest
“God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools.” - John Muir
Walling off the Last Sabal Palm Forest
"..so long as politicians believe that militarizing the border plays well in their home districts they will continue to draft legislation calling for more border walls. To voters in Utah and Connecticut sabal palm forests along the Rio Grande are no more real than the forests in Avatar. When the palm forests are gone most won’t notice their passing. " - S. Nicol

Hermes Copper (Lycaena hermes)
San Diego County, CA
"When the moon shall have faded from the sky, and the sun shall shine at noonday a dull cherry-red, and the seas shall be frozen over, and the ice-cap shall have crept downward from the equator from either pole, and no keels shall cut the waters, nor wheels turn in mills, when all cities shall have long been dead and crumbled into dust, and all life shall be on the very last verge of extinction on this globe; then, on a bit of lichen, growing on the bald rocks beside the eternal snows of Panama, shall be seated a tiny insect, preening its antennae in the glow of the worn-out sun, representing the sole survival of animal life on this our earth, --a melancholy 'bug'."
-- The Moth Book, W. J. Holland, 1909

The first time I found out that was native to the US I said "What!?" they are so very exotic looking, they should belong in Africa or something.
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly is he doing by the way? Taking a leaf bath?
=D They are absolutely fantastic creatures, even if this one is a bit itchy ;-)
ReplyDeleteWe assume he's just scratching that spot on his nose that's so hard to get with a... hoof... foot... leg... appendage.
