Lover of all innocent creatures. Especially our pollinator friends.
Hope to spread as much kindness as I possibly can.
Cause heck, who doesn't like kindness?

Being apart of a controlled burn to rid several invasive species at Izaak Walton in Homewood, Illinois was just SO super amazing. Because of their deep root system, all of the #nativeplants will grow stronger next spring. #bucketlist

Here in Homewood, IL the goldenrods are just starting to bloom. Just in time for my little bumblebee friend, who is looking pretty darn crazy hungry. The later blooming native flowers (i.e. goldenrods, asters,) are vital for any pollinator garden. Please #plantwithintent for these phenomenal beings.

Just THE coolest!! Pure magic!!
False sunflower should pretty much be a requirement
for every garden. Just the most beautiful yellow flower,
they have blooms for over a couple of months, and as
your photo can attest, they attract the most wonderful
animals around!! THX for sharing!! ☮️

You're SO right!! This Screwball reminds me of all the
REALLY amazingly wonderful little things that are in our world. Swallowtails on common milkweed are definitely one of
those things. ☮️

Yesterday, my Boots called me a "Wuss" too.
However, this is coming from a dude, who was found
in a car engine as a kitten. ☮️

This young man started picking my face with his claws at 4:20
(THAT'S FOUR TWENTY A.M.!!!) this morning. He SO wanted me to get up. Honestly, I couldn't be mad at him... only joyful. ☮️
