I care deeply about the big, scary things going on in the world. I also need a respite from them. This little account is my break from the doomscroll, mostly through my daily photo strolls in Portland.

Are they better than the Pixel Buds Pro 1? I couldn't keep those in my ears at all.

The A series worked well for me, but have been nervous to try the new pro series.

These bees love the passionflower as much as I do.

I think my 365 photo project is turning me into a member of the Portland Pollinator Paparazzi.

Spotted this #ladybug on today’s #photostroll and had to look up what was going on. Turns out it’s fresh out of its pupa - wings still soft, and the shell hasn’t hardened or deepened in color yet. This post-emergence phase is called the teneral stage and only lasts a few hours.

My favorite discovery of the new year has been the Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge just 45 min outside of Portland. A few shots from the couple times I've been: photos.app.goo.gl/5Q4ug8TEU75d...
