My design features a great blue heron and small verdin, both contributors to Arizona's ecosystem. Alongside the birds are mullein, dandelion, and purple nightshade - all weeds of the desert. Purple nightshade grows commonly in highly disturbed areas, such as in overgrazed pastures and vacant lots. They serve as a message that nature prevails despite or in spite of urban growth, calling for the restoration and respect of the natural world.
