Hi Maile66, review follows: article moved to mainspace on 4 March; article is well written and exceeds minimum length; sources look to be reliable; I didn't find any issue with overly close paraphrasing - though you might consider rephrasing "upland depressional forest with many unique species of plants" which is taken direct from the source, particularly as I don't know what a "depressional forest" is; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; image is good, relevant and is freely licensed through Flickr; a QPQ has been carried out. Date request seems appropriate. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 08:30, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
