river pics! featuring some insect friends :] a male white-faced meadowhawk (the dragonfly), milkweed tussock moth caterpillar, and also not an insect, a juvenile gull! (panting from the heat, as all gulls there were) also, a pic of the river, which was gorgeous and filled with waterlilies!

this is for a possible keychain/charm design. i'll post draft designs once ive made them :] looks like nobody's done my idea yet either!!

part 2 of trails and water pics: the scenery :]

pics from the trails and water! i got lost walking in the trails and spent 2 hours extra walking back but that's okay ❤️ species names in alt text!! fun fact: did you know this is what juvenile herring gulls look like? you can often find these fellas begging adult gulls for food (unsuccessfully)

a close up of my cat's eye! i was just taking this to see how much detail my phone could capture, but this shot is so cool. i love his eyelashes

i could talk about garter snakes all day, but just one more thing: musk! the most common defense i get from handling them. if you pick up a garter snake they most likely won't bite you, however you will most certainly be musked. musk is a foul smelling liquid, harmless but VERY hard to wash off

a rare moment for me!! this is a butler's gartersnake exhibiting its defensive posture, something i don't see very often. It flattens its head and body, coiling itself, shaking its tail, and sometimes faking strikes, to ward off danger. these are all defense mechanisms used by several snake species

rough heron sketch!! soon to be painting :]

waiting room sketches!! (i very nearly passed out after getting my blood taken but im good now)

did this mostly in the dark while watching tv a couple nights ago!! there's another one half finished of my other crestie but i was too tired to finish it

some gorgeous native ontario species today!! black-headed ash sawfly (1), and shiny-sided bladetail! (2)

sawflies are non-stinging, wasp-like insects. their namesake is their saw shaped ovipositor.

shiny-sided bladetails are a species of robber fly, which catch other insects as prey mid-air.
