Desert dwelling snake-lover with a very cute dog.
Forever in awe of how pretty my best girl is 🥰

Or if you prefer a daintier dog, a whippet.

Get yourself a partner who supports your collection of vintage herpetology books (& finds you a 1st edition complete volume of your holy grail at a local used bookstore).

Love you like Kestrel loves a hot dog 🌭

Dogs are such strange creatures.

In honor of all the owls being discussed today, here are a couple favorite images captured via field cam from my time monitoring burrowing owls with the Center for Conservation Biology in the Coachella Valley.

I was able to walk a whole mile from breakfast back to our hotel this morning.

After spending September-November mostly bedridden & having a lot of ups & downs pain-wise since December, it feels so nice to be able to start managing short outings on my feet again.

Alex gave me the MOST PERFECT NECKLACE for Valentine’s Day 😭❤️

I love this little dude so much. He’s finally starting to get color back in the spots where he lost some scales prior to rescue.

The new specialty pet shop near us has the best assortment of freeze dried & raw treats! Kestrel has never been so spoiled.

Inside our house are two wolves.

I love our bathroom & how it has become a home for thrifted grandparents.

Love that Alex lets me bring home photos of strangers to display proudly in the room we are most vulnerable.

Yes, another post about how much I love my giant snuggly monster truck of a dog.

She is everything.

One of mine & Alex’s favorite lunch spots is a bakery/sandwich shop called Aspen Mills. But for some reason, Alex can never remember the name & instead calls it Alpine Meadows. So for Christmas I’m giving him a shirt with this printed on it.

Our house decor is coming together about as expected tbh.

Sometimes Ladybug stretches out across all of the expensive pieces from her enclosure & I think she does it just to make me feel good.

Other times she will go days without touching anything besides the cardboard paper towel tube.

Ladybug has been ready to brumate for weeks, but Aphid refuses to settle & just basks on his coyote skull all day long.

Best dog I’ve ever known.

For a costume thrown together in less than 24 hours using only pieces I already own (except one spool of ribbon to make my collar), feels not too shabby. Especially since we were the only people to show up to this party in costumes at all.

We love a good brass haul 🙌🏼
