A forest stream bed with smooth gray stones and moss-covered rocks in the foreground, leading up to an eroded earth bank with several dark holes visible in its face. Lush green ferns and undergrowth climb the slope, with hanging tree roots and tall evergreen trees framing the top of the bank against a bright sky.

The holes seen in the face of the earth bank here are used as nests by birds in the Cinclus genus. When the creek is running, the dippers flit in and out of those holes as they go about the business of gathering food for their chicks.
