I’m captioning pictures from my bird feeder.

I was giddy with excitement seeing Trumpeter Swans at the Ridgefield NWR today!

Rubio sure melted into that couch yesterday now that he’s completely lost his backbone, yikes.

Took me a good minute to find this hummingbird after I heard it this afternoon. Looking forward to sunnier days! #birds 🪶

My cup is overflowing after #NASP2025! It was so meaningful to be close to home and have of my school psych circles sharing the experience together, especially as I get ready to step into the role of NASP delegate for WA. Endlessly thankful for this journey and the amazing people along the way 💚💚

Saturday finish! This is quickly becoming my mantra for these stressful times. I will not let my joy, civility, and compassion be taken from me.

Time for a wash and a hoop. #stitchsky #crossstitch

Everyone is awesome 🫶🏼

Excited to put this in my office.

Our Sunday hike was up the north side of a hill in our local state forest, so we didn’t see the sun until we got up to the top. Worth the wait!!

Don’t just take my word for it!

Starting out on a new #crossstitch adventure 💚

The first day we had our feeder out, the only bird we saw all day was a black-capped chickadee. So, naturally, we nicknamed them “Chonk”adee since they were the only one eating.

It’s mostly juncos these days, so it’s fun to see our good friend Chonkadee on the camera! 🪶 #birding #birdfeeder

Don’t let the bastards get you down. Joy is an act of resistance.

I am really enjoying and feeling solidarity with the lightly panicked and discombobulated energy that the Spotted Towhees are bringing to the feeder this week.
