Wanted to share a few activities from the past few days. I spent a day volunteering on a nature reserve to 'bash' Balsam (an invasive plant that takes over the woodland). I found my first Tawny Owl, who was sneakily tucked away. Some moth propaganda. And finally, a linocut that I carved and printed.

Was afraid of bugs and spiders for most of my life and slowly started to come around the time you got Hank at Alveus.
The last couple of weeks, the bug propaganda on stream just completely turned me around, and I'm the certified bug girl of the family now.

Every year my friends and I go backpacking in the National Parks in America (we've been to 33.) Here are some of my favorite photos I've taken, including from my most recent trip to the Badlands. We always practice leave no trace and will pick up any trash we find in the backcountry and take it out.

So many flowers blooming now. Went for a walk though a local community garden and woods near me. Surprisingly didn’t find any trash but did find a few bugs. Also saw cicada wings but no actual cicadas.

Hello! How's everyone doing? I'm doing great and having a lot of fun taking pictures of bugs :). I started bringing along a blacklight in hopes of finding a scorpion, but I'm also using it on other things!

Saw the first monarch butterfly of the year at our milkweed plants.

I’m doing a summer university course in Aarhus, Denmark named Leading with Nature: Biodiversity and Nature-Based strategies for Business, trying to incorporate biodiversity and nature in my studies as a data scientist!

The past week has mostly been in the upper 90s, (36c) so I took a night hike in one of my favorite urban parks to avoid the heat and to see some nocturnal species. I did also take a normal hike and found some great subjects despite the mid-day heat, including a mating pair of jumping spiders!
