Stumbled on this absolute beast of a waterfall in Yellowstone! Roaring water, misty vibes, and the kind of scenery that makes you forget your phone has notifications. 10/10 would chase again.

A powerful waterfall crashes down a rocky cliff in the middle of a forest in Yellowstone National Park. Mist rises around the falls as sunlight streams through tall pine trees, lighting up green grass, wildflowers, and a rocky stream below. It’s wild, loud, and gorgeous.

Magic winter days

#ThrowbackThursday
2021.

While on a nature hike with my friend, Lyrica, we spotted an owl flying into the top of this tree snag & it was hooting from inside. I tried to talk it out in 2nd photo. Then, I tried to hug the snag tree & try to coax it out. It did not work. The owl didn't come out but it hooted a few more times before we walked away.

Telling my friend about DOC #surfactant in creek. He was worried at first sight but it's not pollution. It is a #natural occurrence. It's an essential part of a healthy & functioning #forest #ecosystem.

Naturally occurring stream foam can be off-white, light tan, or brown. Formed by dissolved organic matter/dissolved #organic carbon (DOC). DOC results from the breakdown of organic debris, tannins & #watershed soils rich in organic materials.

Two dorky photos of no makeup me, from another pruning workshop attendee. My jaw is sore & I don't know how to work my mouth properly yet, with immediate dentures in.

I picked some lavender to bring home. Love the smell of lavender.

Something about #ferns & raindrops falling on still #waters, that instantly brings calming, #peaceful energies to my soul. #Nature provides many free to access & free to absorb, #HealingPowers 🙏💗

I love admiring the #foliage of #ferns 😍

Rewilding, is allowing nature the space to restore to natural habitat.

By excluding heavy machine, hooved animals, we have had mass self seeding from the native trees that are doing well in today's climate. We identify, assist the self seeded by protecting.

We give a helping hand by planting natives that grew here prior to clearing and by planting for the future further climate change.

Just realized the platypus is like the Frankenstein's monster of the animal kingdom - part duck, part beaver, all cool! 🦆🦔#NatureNerd

Fen and I are rearranging our livingroom so that we have a cozy corner again and that I have a bigger workspace.

It's a huge mess and so much to do! But the cozy corner comes along nicely and one part of my collection is standing already.

Because of climate change, loss of natural environment and changing migration patterns, about 16.5 percent of bird and mammal pollinators are currently threatened with extinction. We need these pollinators for nearly 90 percent of the world’s plants and 75 percent of food crops. So no more pollinators means no more food.#WildlifeHabitat,#naturenerd,#ClimateBenefits

For the last day of my holiday, I decided to head down to Aberdeen beach & Donmouth Nature Reserve for sunrise wildlife watching.

Saw my first weasel (I think - didn’t catch it’s tail) and purple sandpiper. Loved watching the sanderlings run along the shore.

Orange and red sunrise looking towards Aberdeen harbour entrance.

Sanderling on the beach, bathed in a pinky sunrise light.

Group of purple sandpiper stood on top of a tree that’s fallen into the river.

First garden bird of the year I saw was a great spotted woodpecker, which feels like a nice gift as they’re not regular visitors to our garden. Photo not from today because it’s dark & rainy this morning.

What was your first bird of 2023?

It’s goldeneye season 🧡 This is such an exciting time of year for welcoming back our winter visitors. Makes it feel like the year has gone so fast when I think back to the last time I saw a goldeneye near me.

Goldeneye duck on water - the duck has a blocky green head, with a white spot by its bill. It’s eye is golden. The duck’s body is black on top, and white on the bottom two-thirds.

Does anyone else notice #Nature in their dreams? 😴 I know I'm a huge #naturenerd but recently more of my dreams are starting to feature feathered friends and #wildlife. In last night's dream I was lying in the leaf litter with flocks of feeding Bramblings playing hide and seek. It's getting to that time of year - I obviously can't wait! 🍂😍

Do you ever dream about species you see often, or haven't seen in a while?

Oh here's my little pothos planter from some random cuttings. Look to be a bit of #marbleQueen #snowQueen and some #philodendron I threw in as well. Have some #njoy in the tent I'd like to get in here as well sooner rather than later.

The rain is now gone and has been replaced by wind. Trees down and the local river has flooded! I'm still trapped in my nice cozy house so another from the archive!

A couple of adorable snow buntings from last winter. I'm definitely hoping they show up again this year 😊
