Show and Tell

My native garden plans are progressing well and have been noticing more of the wildlife in my backyard. I have a squirrel feeder alongside a suet block and was blessed by the presence of the cutest downy woodpecker. Also got to visit the aquarium for my birthday yipee

Recently I took a trip to Olympic National Park. We spent a week exploring all over the peninsula and saw all sorts of cool scenery and critters! I taught my family all about detritivores because we saw so many Banana Slugs!

I have a hobby taking photos of flowers, and though I'd share some now that summer is winding down, along with a few other odds and ends (mostly birds, but I'm much better at taking photos of flowers than birds. Flowers can't fly away!)

Thrifted some fun brooches and a bracelet (animal and bug themed) from some antique and thrift stores and took Camden for a walk on the beach of course. Also spotted a heron.

After contemplating keeping ants for a few years, seeing my roommate having them gave me the final push.

I did lots of research, also to prevent me from ordering an invasive species. Ended up with a young Messor barbarus queen + ~18 workers. I have named them 'Sweet Raid'.

I went to Costa Rica to help with Sea Turtle Conservation for a week. I saw so many creatures: Scarlett Macaws, Howler Monkeys, Squirrel Monkeys, White Faced Monkeys, Sloths, ect. I help collect about 400 eggs from the beach so poachers wouldn't. https://www.paypal.me/tortugasdeisladamas to donate

Two weeks ago I spend a few days in Tenerife on holiday. I made sure prior to going that the whale excusion we went on was in fact no-chase, and supported local wildlife and conservation efforts. The boat slowly made its way to the area, and powered off the engine while in the area for us to observe

Been taking about 2 hours a day to learn all about vultures! Thanks to you guys at Alveus, I have learned that I love birds, especially waterfowl, parrots and vultures! I'm having so so much fun learning about their natural habitats and behaviors!

Hello! I have been studying Wildlife Conservation online over the past week or so! It's very recent, but it's something I want to learn more and more about and it's something I truly care about too. I have been able to learn, so far, all about biodiversity!

me and 3 of my friends went on this beautiful hike monday :D the weather and the view were beautiful. not a lot of wildlife except for a few frogs and some turkey vultures but still a beautiful place :)
