The Lone Tree Exhibit

Buffalo Gap National Grassland
South Dakota

This Plains cottonwood is showing off its autumn finery, on the banks of French Creek, which here carves a path between grassy expanses and badlands formations. Not far from prairie dog towns, it is a favorite area for Golden eagles to nest.
