🇨🇦 Just a gal who likes bugs, brains, and bicycles. Former radio personality. Community scientist. Lifetime member of MS Canada, which just means I've got scars you can't see. I will answer questions to clarify a post or about MS, otherwise no DMs, please.
A gift to me of lapel pins made from acorn caps with the tiniest tied flies in them. They are soooo freakin' cute! I need to enlarge the pics to see all the details.
Only a few folks know of my budding interest in fly tieing.

They're precious pieces of art.

Cool goggles, a balaclava (maybe baklava for later), and proper body gear keep me riding all year round in Nova Scotia. Oh, and studded tires for the slush and ice on the trails.
If I can be badass and ride in the winter, anyone can.

Lots of colour's in the woods right now, especially at a teeny tiny level. 2/2 #BlueMountainBirchCove or is it the other way around?

Hiked to a lookout point in the Blue Mountain Birch Cove Wilderness area from Hammonds Plains. Slow 30-40 minute climb for me, 20 minutes on the way back, including time spent on nature's trampoline: moss. 1/2

Colour me EXTREMELY excited after finally finding one of these guys for the very first time. Also a little surprised to find it on November 1st. @novascotiamuseum.bsky.social

Largest moth in the world at the Insectarium. Amazing spot. #Montreal

Guess where I am?

1. I've been a little weepy today as this time of year marks Thanksgiving and my dad's birthday. He would have been 91 this Tuesday. 5 years ago I came home and got to spend the last 4.5 months of his life with him and mom, assisting in their care. My bike ride today helped ease the feelings...

I concur.

I had a lovely ride on the #SMBRTrail.

Me speeding! Lol. That's my 2nd laugh of the day. I seem to recover toys on walks and rides a lot. I left it in place to amuse others. I found this ⏬️ guy about 15 years ago in a parking lot.

In case crap is getting you down, check this out. Finishing off my ride today, I was stopped by a cop, sitting on a fence along the trail. I'm sure folks on the other side of the province heard me laughing.
Oh, and hi to @bikehfxlobby.bsky.social! We passed each other on the trail. ❤️

Either a merlin or kestrel in flight. Darn thing took off before I could figure it out. #badbirdpics

I lost the thread, but the question was, what's a show with only one or two seasons, but you wanted to see more of.
Detroit 187 with Michael Imperioli, @shaunmajumder.bsky.social and Aisha Hinds.

This is now my new favourite pic.

Little guy or gal just getting its first look at the world. It's been 4 hours since I took this pic and I'm still so excited I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight.

It doesn't get any better than assisting newly hatched snapping turtles get to the Sackville River. My colleague, David, also on the BoD of @sackvillerivers.bsky.social , spotted them and sent out an email which got me out on a Saturday night to share the joy. ❤️

Very dramatic at Peggy's Cove tonight.

I had a panicked moment today as I thought letters on my computer screen had been Disneyfied and were crawling around.
It was the teeniest (1 mm) spider I've ever seen. 😀 It has since disappeared and my heart rate is back to normal.

One last pic from this year's MS Bike Windsor by Paul Morris.
I am totally in my happy place outside and on the bike and if I hadn't been diagnosed with MS I might never have discovered this joy.

There was evidence of one in my parking lot a few weeks back. 🙂

My first northern ring necked snake!
They may be common here in NS, but I usually encounter garter snakes. I really wanted to take this one home with me. #snakes #reptiles

I went to the end of the Pockwock Road last night.
Ngl, it was spectacular.

Tomorrow is #BurgerstoBeatMS day #A&WCanada. I'm almost ready.
$2 from every Teen Burger goes to MSCanada.

I discovered the solution to close passes while road riding. Wear a tutu and the cars give you lots of room.
Big thanks to the drivers who respected the riders this weekend in Windsor during MS Bike.
