It’s 2025 & I’m still trying to figure out how fireworks are still a thing. If you witness something go BOOM & make sparkly colors once, how does it keep fascinating you? They’re awful for people with PTSD, proven bad for wildlife &, quite frankly, they aggravate the hell out of everyone around you

This doesn’t fix anything at all with the economy & it doesn’t create jobs. In fact, it calls for the USFS to continue to cut jobs. It will, however, pollute the waters & the air, kill wildlife & drastically reduce endangered species & biodiversity.

John Muir once said, “Nothing dollarable is safe, however guarded.”
So it is with our public lands. And this was as predictable as the rising sun.

I’m always glad to share my thoughts on the importance of conservation. I was interviewed by a land trust to discuss the role they’ll play in the future of conservation, uncertain as that future may be…

You can almost hear some photos. State bird of 6 states, including Montana, this Western Meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta) was caught mid-song on a crystal clear morning.

Ever vigilant. With an eye to the sky & an ear to the forest. Great Gray Owls are always so fascinating to observe. I’m grateful each time I see them
