Our latest vacation was to Kentucky and one of the largest caves in the world.
This is the natural opening to the cave.

The Kentucy woods. Most of the forest around Mammoth Cave is not old growth forest. It was mostly farm land which was later purchased by the National Park system.
A woodpecker we saw during a hike above ground.
