South-facing slope dominated by oaks.

Labor Day 2011 Bastrop State Park and surrounding area had a catastrophic wild fire that affected 34,000 acres and destroyed 1697 homes.  I can’t speak for the people who lost homes and businesses from the fire, but the natural landscape is healing very well.  While visiting the park, I made several of my own observations […]

For example, here in Texas there are over sixty listed endangered species in comparison to a smaller state like Rhode Island which lists roughly around ten. It is very important that arborists and […]
