content: Botanical sketch of the trunks of two trees that grow at the foot of a slope in Jamaica. Visible from their base, each tree is cutoff midway up, with the boughs and branches out of view. In the foreground at center, a column-like trunk with white bark--possibly a birch--is covered in green moss. Another tree with a wider trunk stands behind it in the middle distance at left. In the background, a road or path curves around a wooded slope.
