Dear Ilija!
ReplyDeleteI am a teacher of botany, so I have found your brilliant photos while looking for prairie pictures. Sometimes you write prairie, but sometimes you mention llano. As far as I know this two vegetation type is not the same - so I would like to ask you to tell me: where have you taken your pictures about Chloris, cholla, etc. The state is enough for me (because a guess you live in the States, somewhere in the paririe, not in S-Am. where llano is a typical vegetation).

George,
DeleteLlano Estacado is the Spanish name for a 250 square mile plateau which extends across eastern New Mexico and west Texas in the USA. We are at the southern reaches of the North American Great Plains. The vegetation consists of vast grasslands we call prairie. I use Llano and prairie interchangeably. I'm glad you enjoy my photos.
