She/her, Oregon, USA. White cubicle drone scraping by learning ASL. Genuine zoo & aquarium pics/video ONLY. If you want to peruse real animal media, that's nearly 100% of my Media tab. I try to add image descriptions. Correct me if one is wrong.

> When they’re born, leopard cat kittens weigh between 75 - 130 grams. At four weeks old, like the kitten you see here, they’ve nearly doubled in weight. At this age, the kitten’s permanent canine teeth appear and they begin to eat solid food! #PhotoArk [Joel Sartore]

I put this camera here in hopes to see someone excavating insects, but they seem to just want to pose for the camera …. Flicker comes towards the camera but a little too low and it’s a little blurry. #Birds #SaveTheSnag there are insect holes in this wood so it’s just a matter of time I believe

Tbh I’d also love to get like $30 on top of this to try this Indian place next door that makes curry pizza that sounds amazing before I switch motels

Still about $50 short on getting a bundle of nights at once! Need to lock this in by tomorrow night, tbh ideally would love more to get groceries when I’m in the new spot but shelter first #HomelessSky #mutualaid #helpsky #fundsky #transcrowdfund #helpfolkslive2026 #maboost #urgent 💕💸🏳️‍⚧️

The mantis is called the 'rice-pounding grasshopper' in Thailand (ตั๊กแตนตำข้าว), from the motion of its raptorial forelegs resembling the traditional manner of pounding rice to remove the husks. This one was drawn with this very brush.
