Show and Tell

Hey guys, it has been a unusual cold winter this past few weeks but the sun is finally coming back out and it 's finally getting warmer! Here are some pics from a nice walk I took.

Also, I am using this Bird ID app I saw a Youtuber talk about, so now I can ID birds in my yard an learn about them :)

We have been snowed in all week so I didn’t get a chance to do much but here’s a couple of pictures of my cat enjoying the snow.

Highlights from Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. They are home to several Red Wolves and take part in the AZA SAFE program for wild populations, the same program that Alveus is looking to be a part of (and I hope they join!). The more awareness the better!

Went to a local lake while my friend was on a run. Got some sick shots of the cool birds that hang around.

(could also be finite observations of an infinite space or any iteration thereof, depending on how you measure. But I thought it was a catchy title.) Gardening is exciting because there are infinite possibilities and everything that happens is improbable.

went to a few different places after the zoo and i had a blast :) first we went to the aquarium which was doing pretty good education work, then a small hike and on the final day we sat at a park to paint which had a lot of birds i got to ID!!

Today (the day I’m submitting this post) was super sunny and nice so I went outside and found that ladybugs are coming back in our garden, which makes me super excited since spring is almost here !

This month i started volunteering at a rabbit shelter in my area. After all the cleaning and feeding we get to pet and hang out with the bunnies. It’s fun, and it also helps socialize them so they’re more adoptable. There’s a big group of 4 month old Flemish giant rabbits who we call “the herd”!

Came across a hedgehog whilst out walking my dog. Hedgehogs are typically only seen during the night, so I was immediately concerned. This individual (not pictured as my hands were full) was very wobbly when walking, so I got in contact with my local vet and dropped it off. Hopefully it can recover.

I got inspired by all the crafts maya does with thrifted items and it got me back into art :) it has been a long time since I’ve painted or anything and I’m new to wood burning so it’s not anything crazy but it’s fun!
