It's -12°F here. Every time it gets this cold a few bald eagles come down from the mountains and perch on the electric poles on my back yard. Today it is only one but we've had up to three at a time.

Spotted Coralroot (Corallorhiza maculata), one of the few orchids that we have here in Southern Colorado, USA
(lemmy.world)
Corallorhiza maculata is a myco-heterotroph; meaning that it lacks chlorophyll and obtains energy by parasitizing the mycelium of fungi in the family Russulaceae. The rhizome and lower stem are often knotted into branched coral shapes, giving it its name.
