Well, it's not much to look at, but this is my first digital aerial photograph. I lucked out in my flight and got a good position in the back of the plane. I always request a window seat (I like to look out) but often I end up with nothing more than a good view of a wing. This photo was taken right outside of Chicago. This all used to be forest. Much of the midwest used to be forest.... Chicago Wilderness, a coalition in the Chicago area, is putting together a unique plan to make the most of the remnants of the forests, prairies, sand dune beaches, and other natural areas. The Great Lakes Radio Consortium's Lester Graham reports that other large cities are watching to see if Chicago is successful in bringing back native plants and animals to a largely urban area.
