In nature. Animals, anthroplogy, art, astronomy, and food (esp. cheese) make me happy. Willful ignorance makes me cranky. Health policy by day.

Crispy salty delisciousness (with a side of caprese burger).

A heaping pile of salty, crispy french fries on a white plate. They are accompanied by a caprese burger that has a massive, juicy slice of heirloom tomato, basil, and homemade mozzerella on top. And pickles. Lots and lots of crispy, crunchy, sweet tart pickles. Glorious.

Some real creepy Overlook Hotel hotel vibes there!

Twin dogs stand side by side in a darkened hallway staring at you. It is a scene reminiscent of the demonic twin girls haunting the Overlook Hotel from Stephen King's "The Shining".

Surprise! (No petunias planted this year. For the first time in decades). #petunias #flowers #nature #bloomscrolling 🌿🌼

A lone fuscia petunia blooms. The petunia is growing between bricks in a patio, near the leg of a chair. No petunias were planted this year!

Yea! This one just arrived from Vienna where a friend was travelling and thought of me when she saw it. Really brightened my day to open my mailbox!!

Mouseland goes camping! A vignette of three mousies camping. One peeks from the tent, another carries firewood, and the third carries a hammer having pounded in the tent pegs so the tent does not take flight! They are in a meadow and a small campfire is in the foreground. The background suggests the campsite is near the ocean. Cornwall maybe?

Glorious summer evening. #summer #sunset #nature #photography 📷🌿

Sunset over low mountains. The sky is intense hues of orange, yellow, and pink. The mountains appear purple. Trees and a grassy meadow are in the foreground.

Oh hello! I'm brand new and everything is so exciting (and a little scary)! #fawns #deer #mammals #nature #naturephotography 🦊🦌🌿

A very small brown fawn is hiding, tucked among the ferns. They have little white spots along their back and enormous ears. They are looking directly at the camera.

Rory! It is very sweet that you worry about us bipeds, but I am sad you are missing your carrot. Sometimes when i am feeling anxious or worried i watch cute videos. This ia one of my favorites! (Saved on my phone for emergencies)

The golden hour. #bloomscrolling #nature #photography

Really? Thats a great tip! I might just give it a try. I recently started needlefelting pictures, im pretty pleased with the result, so maybe that will translate to fixing my sweaters.

A needlefelted "picture" of a yellow finch perched on a branch of pink cherry blossoms.

Hello, Dear. How about a nice hot cuppa and a chat? (I love her sweet face so much, she reminds me of gramma drawing me in for some gossip)

A gray squirrel is seated in the crook of a tree. Their paws are gathered at their chest, and they are holdimg a mug of tea between their paws.

🎵 You got that fur slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby... 🎶

A white dog with carmel spots on his head and ears (and dark spots on his lightly pink belly) is laying in a white stone wall in front of ferns. He is wearing Wayfarer sunglasses in the bright sunshine.

A colorful bloomstroll. #rhododendron #azalea #dexterrhododendrons #bloomscrolling #nature #photography 🌿🌷🌸

Dexter Rhododendron "Honeydew". Close-up of creamy white blossoms edged in pale pink with yellow throats. Their scent is reminiscent of honeydew melons.

Hey there, just getting ready for date night! It's important to be clean and fresh smelling if you want to impress your bae. #nature #sqrlpix #squirrels #mammals 🦊🐿🌿

A gray squirrel walks around the edge of an iron birdbath full of water. Their large, bushy tail is pointed skyward. They have just finished washing their paws and face.

The fiddleheads and morels are here! #nature #ferns #mushrooms #morels #fiddleheads #foraging

Fuzzy yellow-brown stems of tigtly curled fern fronds, known as fiddleheads. The bright green fronds of the ferns will emerge in a couple of weeks. Fiddleheads can be eaten as a vegetable and are tasty with a little lemon and butter.

I'm not angry. Just disappointed. That the peanuts are late. Again. Get with it human! #titmouse #birds #birdsky #birdphotography #nature 🪶🦉🌿

A tufted titmouse is perched on a branch, surrounded by many bare branches. They are looking directly at the camera and appear to be irritated at having to wait for the evening serving of peanuts.

DogMa@drdogma· Apr 3

I may be smöl, but I've got gumption, dagnammit! Let's GOOOO! That feeder won't empty itself!! #sqrlpix #squirrels #redsquirrel #mammals #nature 🦊🐿🌿🥜

A small red squirrel is crouched in the grass, surrounded by bird seed shells. The squirrel is crouching and has their right arm raised/right paw in a small fist expressing enthusiasm and emphasis.

Yes, thanks, I would enjoy a relaxing evening soak in the tub! Perhaps with a glass of wine? #mourningdoves #birds #nature #hottubbing #spring🪶🦉🌿

A mourning dove is perched at the edge of a heated bird bath. While there is a very thin layer of ice at the rim, steam rises from the bowl. After a long day of looking for seed in the spring snow, she is ready for a relaxing soak.

DogMa@drdogma· Mar 22

This is the first day of spring? Really?!? #titmouse #birds #birdsky #nature #spring 🌿🦉🐦

A tufted titmouse is perched on an iron trellis. Bare tree branches are in the background. Snowflakes are softly falling. They are looking directly at rhe camera looking incredulous.

It reminds me of Sandy Neck on the other side of the Atlantic!

Sunset over Sandy Neck. The sky is grey, with a smattering of pink clouds. The Atlantic is grey and broody.

The sky over the dunes at Sandy Neck is blue with fluffy clouds.

Cautiously optimistic that spring has finally arrived in the frozen midwest. #bloomscrolling #crocus #spring #nature 🌿🌷

Beg pardon, but dinner seems to be inexplicably late this evening. I'm sure that this was inadvertent, but this smöl squirrel is weak from hunger! #squirrels #sqrlpix #squirrelsky #nature #mammals #daylightsavings 🦊🐿🌿

A grey squirrel is perched in a bare tree. One paw leans on a branch, while the other is gathered close to their clearly very empty tum. They are looking directly at you and would like to convey their disappointment that the evening repast has been inexplicably delayed and that they shall surely perish if they are not provisioned promptly.

DogMa@drdogma· Mar 1

Tank! I just made peanut butter banana pancakes. Want some?

A plate of pancakes topped with blueberries.

They are the happiest looking critter!

It's the weekend! Fancy joining me for dinner and a movie? #squirrels #sqrlpix #mammals #nature #datenight 🐿🦊🌿

Seriously, enough with the snow! #bluejay #birds #birdsky #nature 🪶🦉🌿

A bluejay sits on a snow covered branch. They look very irritated. Snow is falling around them. Endless f-ing snow.
