1. **State the problem:** We need to find the equation of a circle given its center and radius.
2. **Recall the formula:** The standard form of a circle's equation with center $(h, k)$ and radius $r$ is:
$$ (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 $$
3. **Identify the center and radius:** From the graph, the center is approximately $(-5, 6)$ and the radius is approximately $1$.
4. **Substitute values into the formula:**
$$ (x - (-5))^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 1^2 $$
which simplifies to
$$ (x + 5)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 1 $$
5. **Final answer:** The equation of the circle is
$$ (x + 5)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 1 $$
