California Ecosystems - Wrens on the Hazelnuts (original) ocean_art you may notice small grey-brownThis work focuses on the ecological relationships in redwood adjacent forest. Pacific Wrens perch on the slender branches of California Hazelnut, singing their complex songs. Woodland Cicadas rasp their abdomens to advertise their presence during the first warm days of summer.
