Some tears old picture... recovered now.
This is nature, Antonia. No neat borders of human architectural design here! This is a rich interdependent community. One trunk of a tree, (or massive collection of air roots or vines), plastered with thick layers of aged moss through which other epithets are growing. Inside this, there will be hosts of different insects and spiders which will invite birds to feed!
But it also happens to be only a tiny part of a forrest of such overlapping independant sovereign states or ecosystems!
When you add it up in a glance, what do we have?
One word: beauty!
