<p>Taking this shot was no small feat and I was pretty much hanging on some rock formations on rather steep slope, which could have given up....and roll down the hill - near Mt Whitney. The large boulder was between the little one and the tree....who knows, the snow might change the dynamics (weight) and it could careen down the slope.</p>

<p>Hippos in Tanzania.</p>

<p>Leszek's boulder image looks like an animal with a big belly and her little rock baby. So I thought this hippo image would be an appropriate accompaniment. :-) Another illustration I can think of is an elephant and her little one.</p><div>00eJuF-567385184.thumb.jpg.2dc19b15ad695758ca836b3ddcaeaa5f.jpg</div>

<p>Thanks Laura that appears to be what I am seeing. I will let the orchard manager know to see if they want to treat the infection. That probably explains why some of the trees just suddenly die. It takes several years to grow a new productive tree.</p>
