What do you mean me showing you my Megalodon tooth didn't make you fall in love?

Welcoming stillness in West Virginia.

The sheer, raw whimsy birds have discovering themselves >>

Chase DeLauter is an absolute unit of a player.

A seabird enjoying dinner.. or auditioning for a 90s shampoo ad. You decide.

The trails of Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge during sunset feel almost dreamlike.

Man, shell yeah.

Birds during golden hour are something else entirely.. So pure.

We did it. We defeated January.

What a prick. 😉

Beneath the faint, resinous spice of a drenched ponderosa pine. #ThickTrunkTuesday

Southwest serenade.

I drove 500 miles to Los Angeles to rescue a German Shepherd who was red listed for euthanasia. The shelter told me he was adoptable. They approved it. They walked the dog out to me. I was filming. We were about to load him into the van. Then I was stopped. They pulled me aside and said “there was a mistake.” A clerical error. Someone entered his behavioral score wrong in the system, which is why he was ever listed as adoptable in the first place. Once they realized their mistake, they reversed the adoption. And now, because they corrected their paperwork, they’re going to kill him anyway. I work with difficult dogs all the time. This dog is not aggressive. He’s terrified, stressed, and stuck in a concrete nightmare. Call Sergeant Vega at 562-658-2085 and ask why dog A5745484 is being euthanized because of a data entry error. This is what “process over life” looks like. This is what bureaucracy does when no one pushes back.

When that deep blue hour dusk falls.

Falls of powdered sugar, laced with crystal.

Stepping into the night.

This is the type of trail that makes people want to frolic.

Last waterfall capture of my 2025 journey. Wishing you all a safe and happy New Year! 🩶

Trail Tuesday: Into misty depths, I fade.

Grounded.

Amidst this weekend's heatwave, frost surrenders.
