The chronicle of Terra Preta
Dense evergreen rainforest, 73 m up, kept by Daphne S.
Every line is a record the land wrote; the names in quotes are the owner's words. What the chronicle does not say did not happen. Most lines fade after half a year; the kept ones stay.
Animals here this month: jaguar (feeding), puma (denning), white-tailed deer (calving), peccary (calving), brocket deer (calving), harpy eagle (nesting).
