A close-up, high-angle view depicts a segment of natural ground in Tapaiteng Uesa, Bhutan. The central feature is an irregular mound of loose, dark brown, granular soil, consistent with an ant hill or worm casting, measuring approximately 10-15 cm in diameter. Multiple small orifices are visible within the disturbed soil structure, suggesting subsurface activity. Surrounding this soil mound is a dense patch of green, broad-bladed grass. Several grass blades exhibit minor brown discoloration, dark linear markings, and slight marginal tearing. Small, round-leaved green plants are interspersed among the grass, particularly adjacent to the soil mound. Fine soil particles are scattered across the surfaces of nearby grass blades. The environment is natural and outdoors, illuminated by diffuse light, producing soft shadows. No individuals, animals, or man-made objects are present in the frame.
