Yucca forest


I love these majestic yuccas. I love the moths that pollinate them - they cannot be pollinated without the yucca moths (go here for a wonderful story - http://waynesword.palomar.edu/ww0902a.htm ). How two separate organisms from separate Kingdoms have intertwined their existence is beautiful. One cannot exist for long without each other or without intervention by another organism... like people. But people are fickle. They tire and get bored. Like the story of the Emperor and the Nightingale, they look for sparkly mechanical things to entertain them....
