Around Azeroth: Hidden in plain sight
Geoff, who declined to leave his name or server, wrote "Some people never notice the Eagle / Bear tree, even though it's almost smackdab in the center of Darnassus." Count me as one of those people, because while I've leveled tons of little night elves up through Teldrassil, I've never before noticed that the bank is actually a statue of two druid forms. I guess that sometimes you just have to look at things from a distance to get the full picture. (Edited to add: Yes, this is a repost. I look through the galleries before writing to try to avoid them, but this one slipped past me.)
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We prefer full screen shots without the UI showing. And please, no more sunsets. That's hippy-dippy night elf imagery.

Heh, I was going to post that exact same reply...
Funny when the readers know the blog better than the bloggers themselves. xD

Been quite awhile since I've been to Darn, but there's also a wolf 'hiding' in that tree iirc.

I only knew about that because one of the Childrens Week quests points it out... completely missed it before i did that quest! And I have to admit I still missed the eagle, only really noticed the bear.

Charlie Apr 11th 2008 11:19AM

There is another tree just like this one at The Oracle Glade on Teldrassil but my favorite part as a Horde player is that there is a burnt one in the Valley of Wisdom in Orgrimmar. It holds the armor of Mannoroth and has a plaque to Grom Hellscream's deeds.

I was in Searing gorge doing some mining in the Blackchar Cave area and the overhead view in the minimap looks like a face.
I haven't really noticed that any other place.

Nobody noticed because nobody ever goes to Darnassus...
