Are these are rare as the "Ruthveni" or not as much. Lovely photo.
It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Those who are afraid to ask are ashamed of learning.

Nowhere as rare as the Louisiana pines but still rare to see (especially when you want to photo one!). They can be somewhat common but they take a tremendous hit each year from vehicles...
