I should probably introduce myself! I’ve been on bsky for a while. 🌵🏜️ I’m from Arizona but lived in Canada growing up. I love nature, photography, hiking, reading, working hard, & democracy. My hubby & I have 2 rescue tuxedo kitties who are wild things! 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Posting samples of some of my work below

One of my favorite winter bird sounds besides the black-throated sparrow is the white-crowned sparrow, always coming with the pretty songs while I’m out hiking. 🤍🩶🖤🤎

Democrats have introduced legislation to fund all of DHS except for ICE and CBP while negotiations on reforms continue, but at the moment Republicans think the chaos of the shutdown gives them more leverage. It’s up to us to change that.

Donald Trump is a racist. He has always been a racist. He will always be a racist. When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time.

June in Tucson is one of the hottest times of year, w/ clear blue skies, & hot hot weather. It’s a time when locals take advantage of school being out & head to the hills/coast. My take: mountain lake! 📍Western Apache land #lake #⛰️ #🌄 #scape #mountains #mountainlake #sunrise #landscapephotography

I can’t even with these people.

My husband and I and our two co-hikers finished the last 67 miles of the Arizona Trail the first week of June. It feels good to be done but now we need a new adventure! #hiking #arizonatrail #azt #arizona #backpacking #🥾 #tree #trail #NorthernArizona 📍Ancestral lands of the Nuwuvi and Pueblos
