The distribution of plants in a given locality is not more marked and defined than that of the birds. Show a botanist a landscape, and he will tell you where to look for the lady's-slipper, the columbine, or the harebell. On the same principles, the ornithologist will direct you where to look for the greenlets, the wood-sparrow, or the chewink.

This is the first known published encounter with the Haisla people.

 but it's one which we really need help to see a little better. It's not always a matter of the world moving by too quickly for our eyes to process.
