One of 18 transparent panels installed at Hagg Lake, Oregon, illustrating the vibrancy and connections between local plants, animals, and human activity, with a focus on native species.

Facing towards the water, the Scoggins Creek panel features a flock of Band-Tailed Pigeons gathered to drink at the stream, near a curious Cutthroat Trout. A Northern Flicker, one of Oregon's larger woodpeckers, sits on a high branch above.

On the opposite side of the panel, facing inland, Trillium flowers bloom at the base of an ancient mossy stump, which is host to a younger tree and a pair of Pacific Tree Frogs.
