Limnanthes
The flower at the center of the red-tailed hawk is Limnanthes vinculans, endemic to our area. The leaves in the background are based on the buckeye forests. The butterflies are California sisters, which are common here, but very beautiful.

The leaning giant, loosely based on an actual redwood from our mountain that I see almost everyday. The three bends in the upper part of the tree are actually caused by breakages it had in the past and healed over, so it gives the tree an almost snake like trunk. 3 1/2 months of carving.

Broken Top, most of the redwoods on our mountain are ancient broken tops.
