Coincide looks into my observations of the quiet knowledge of wildlife, and that nothing can exists in isolation.

Textures are not random and serve to create a footing for creatures to climb, a home for the smaller insects vital in the chain and insulation for the limb.

Trees become the real estate of high value. It is safe, it has the right food and creates a distance from predators.

The grasslands hide a flightless bird, protected during day to allow night to call and hunt without fear.

Blooms want the birds to eat its nectar for pollen transfer strengthening its genetic variation. It works hard for the attention producing its sweet nectar.

There is a wonder to watch, to observe the poetic notion of how mutualism just works.

A simple balance to a complex matrix of life, is no coincidence.
