I'm not here for the doom. I'm here for the beauty and the hope and the lolz.

If you share nature photos I will probably follow you back.

Back when I worked for Indigenous Services Canada, the "Union québécoise de réhabilitation des oiseaux de proie", a rehabilitation centre for injured birds of prey brought in a few birds and we had an indigenous Elder speak about their importance. Here is a peregrine falcon. #birds #birdsofprey

The Scarlet Lily Beetle sure is pretty, except when it's eating my lilies. =/ #insects #bugs

Apparently today's #BirdOfTheDay is #FightingBirds or #BirdsFighting and I just can't help but share this photo of a raven and a squirrel fighting over an unseen dead mouse. The raven won and successfully stole the squirrel's pre-winter snack.

An Orchard Orbweaver in my back yard last year. I'm not normally a fan of spiders (terrified really), but I couldn't help but admire the colours on this one. And how BIG a web it spun. #bugs #spiders

This is a Pearly Wood-Nymph Moth. I just love how nature camouflages itself. I legitimately thought this was a bird poo on my car until I realized it was moving. #moths #insects #bugs
