FEATHERS




Why Feathers? 

      Feathers are a miracle of nature. The culmination of evolution's design process, infinitely more varied than hair of scales. They also perform many more functions than any skin on any other animal. They are also unique to birds. Bird's ability to fly, thanks to the feather and some nifty adaptations to their skeletal structure, has given them a unique place in the history of human culture.


" We are removed from the rest of the natural world in that we can infer the future and examine the past. Yet history has shown us that even the most advanced scientific thinking occurs within a framework of human culture. So why not examine ourselves from different frameworks?



What can we discover when we look at fashion in terms of sexual selection, or birds of paradise as cultural models? What can we learn about nature and ourselves by reversing our point of view?"

CRESCENTIA ALATA



I am still surprised every time I see this tree.  There are three individual Crescentia Alatas that I know well but this one is my favorite. Actually, it is a pair of very old trees growing in the middle of granite boulders that are the home of a family of black iguanas. The fruit growing from the branches seems the work of a glue gun rather than evolution. The leaves also look somehow glued together and they grow lining the taller branches like armies of small people walking upward toward the sun. Even though the tree blooms throughout the year I have seen explosions of blooms after very heavy rains.
