I went for a lot of early morning walks recently & on some of them I took photos with my very old digital camera, which surprisingly still takes better photos than my phone, saw a lot of pretty flowers & deer! (it was dark so the photo is a little spooky) + more pretty flowers from my parents garden

Thank you all for taking part in the census, it's wonderful to see it all come to life - I've made a compilation of some of the observations so far! I'm so glad that everyone is enjoying it and we've already collected over 200 high-quality identifications since launch! p.s. I'll only add some hours!

I spent a week on Heron Island learning about the specific coral cay and the ecosystem supported here and the threats it faces :) I conducted research looking into how the composition of coral growth forms varies between sites on the reef flat! Very fun, enjoyable experience, YIPPPIE!

Went hiking last weekend, thought the trail was unique. Foraged some prairie tea from our yard. A couple of critters from along the way. Also made a temporary nest for a mockingbird and they successfully fledged on Wednesday! Sorry for shaky videos, critters were high up.

I went to the Portland zoo about a month ago and forgot to share my pictures

Went to Caddo Lake State Park in Texas to see one of the most unique biomes in the state, and the largest cypress swamp in the world! The trip was cut short due to excruciating heat, but still saw plenty of birbs, and pretty swamps (with tons of mosquitoes)

flowers, bugs, a lizard, and a puppy
I only really know the plant names and google image searched the bugs
The blood of western fence lizards kills the bacteria that causes lyme. When a tick bites one of the lizards it kills the bacteria in the lyme.
