I’m a firm believer that those who claim cats are too aloof & independent have never truly bonded closely with one.

Meet Simon…my affectionate shadow.💚

RIP magnificent one.🐺🖤

Frolicking around in my favorite place for a while. It’s good to be back.❄️
Mother Nature always has a way of making me stay calmer & focusing on what truly matters, when everything else appears to be deteriorating into madness.

A gorgeous coyote makes eye contact through the blowing snow while making its way to an elk carcass left by a recent wolf pack kill.

From a couple of years ago, taking in a peaceful scene at dusk shortly after a winter storm in Yosemite. I thrive in colder conditions.❄️ Can anyone else relate?

This is Simon.💚

He came into our lives 2 years ago & was a rescue from the Humane Society. He will be seen around these parts often. Our furbabies are immensely supportive to so many of us trying to be strong these days & maintain our sanity.

One of the many reasons I love this time of year & the rainy season in the Pacific Northwest. So many 🍄‍🟫✨

Warning ⚠️
If you don’t like cats, then this isn’t the best account to follow. But also, really…what’s wrong with you? 🐱

Hello! My name is Candace & I’m a nature & conservation photographer, wolf & wildlife advocate from the PNW. Aside from nature, I’ll likely share about my furbabies & home life on the Olympic Peninsula. Here’s a few winter images of gray wolves to start out. Looking forward to connecting here 🐺♥️
