The greater part of the phenomena of Nature . . . are concealed from us all our lives. There is just as much beauty visible to us in the landscape as we are prepared to appreciate, and not a grain more. . . . A man sees only what concerns him.”
— HENRY DAVID THOREAU
Nancy Ross Hugo, Seeing Trees
There is always something to watch when you are paying attention to the intimate details that define tree species and the processes that characterize their life cycles. Like the Chinese, who divide the solar calendar into twenty-four rather than four seasons (among them, fortnights called “excited insects,” “grains fill,” “cold dew,” and “frost descends”).
