Remnants of once-vast ecosystem linger on public and private
properties
The big trees lean this way and that like preadolescents at
a middle school dance who want to be seen together but aren’t quite ready to

is a classic example of an ecosystem known as oak savanna—or, I must hasten to
add, what is left of one.
