Great opportunity to get some native flowers in your life for folks in the #InlandNorthWest, even if you can't do a garden!

I will be chasing the peace captured in this photo for the rest of my life, I think. A warm sunset in southeastern Madagascar. 📷Sony A7III #Photography #LandscapePhotography #Nature #Madagascar #Africa

The red foxes are getting out of hand in Pullman

Despite the horrors, water continues to cut. Rock by rock. Grain by grain. The river persists and canyon grows. In times like these, nature inspires perseverance. Black Canyon of the Gunnison, CO. 📷Sony A7III #Photography #Nature #Colorado #LandscapePhotography

I love iNaturalist, but it's always so disheartening to upload an observation of a charismatic species & get a bunch of IDs while my arthropod & plant observations languish. I don't need 5 people confirming that yes, that is indeed an elephant. I need 1 person to tell me what this weird bug is!

the mark of a true nature enjoyer is passionately, arbitrarily disliking species, esp by having low tolerance for annoyance. for ex, if an animal is too loud or behaves in a manner I feel is stupid, it is marked for death (being the focus of anecdotes about disliking animals for the rest of my life)

The president -Is occupying a major city with armed paramilitiaries -Is blackmailing treaty allies to hand over their sovereign territory -Is trying to set himself up as chairman for life of a UN rival with $1B fees for permanent membership -Is talking about canceling elections

It’s cold comfort right now but, if past is prologue, spectacles of violence committed by the state against sympathetic civilians—especially when captured on camera—were the beginning of the end for Bull Connor and Jim Crow, too.

This stuff is good, seriously. If you or someone you know loves skin/haircare, they'll love Marula oil too. They'll especially love it if it helps restore rainforest and save lemurs.

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

We are a large nation run by little people. Microscopic even. They make me feel ashamed of my nationality. The world, and we, deserve better.

It's out! Our 2025 Annual Report is here. This year was our most challenging yet, but thanks to your support, we didn't just survive 2025. We THRIVED 🌱 Learn how we restored endangered ecosystems 👇 www.PhoenixConservancy.org/annual-report-2025 #Conservation #Restoration #Nature #Nonprofit

Heinous weather here in eastern Washington, where we got wind gusts up to 102 MPH just a mile away from my home. Still without power, but fortunately no property damage for me. Many others were not as lucky. #Palouse #Washington #Pullman #PNW

Hanging on for dear life The rainforest of Ivohiboro clings to existence on the steep slopes of the mountain on which it grows. Wildfires, started in the lowlands, frequently burn upslope and scorch the forest, the results of which you can see here. 📸: Sony A7III #Photography #Nature #Madagascar

I can feel the cool, humid air rushing through the Land Cruiser's open windows just looking at this photo. The savannas of southeastern Madagascar are like nothing else. 📸: Sony A7III #Photography #Nature #Madagascar #Landscape

Playing around with old photos and found this curious Malagasy Paradise-Flycatcher in the unedited pile. This one was straining the limits of RAW editing, but it's a fun one nonetheless. 📸: Sony A7III #Nature #Wildlife #Photography #Madagascar

There's no Christmas like a Charlie Brown Christmas! Douglas-Fir harvested (with a permit) from St. Joe National Forest in the Idaho Panhandle.

In honor of World Wildlife Conservation Day, may I present one of my absolute favorite wildlife photos. Meet the Ranomafana Nosed Chameleon (Calumma tijasmantoi)! 📸Sony A7III 🔍Sigma 150-600mm #Wildlife #Nature #Conservation #Photography

There are many drawbacks to my fiancé spending a month in Pocatello, Idaho. But I got to visit her over Thanksgiving and spotted my lifer Greater Sage-Grouse en route with the Tietons in the background! Absolutely picture perfect bird experience #Birding #Nature #Wildlife #Photography

Honestly the greatest advantage anyone can have going abroad is simply /not being French/

This project has been a long time coming, and I am thrilled to see it go live!

Speaking of flying squirrels but completely unrelated (genetically), my favorite animals are colugos, aka flying lemurs. They're not lemurs at all, but they're kind of proto primates in that all primates share a common ancestor with these weirdos before any other mammal on Earth.

I'm revisiting old, unedited photos to find useful pieces for storytelling since it's year-end fundraising season. Check out this gorgeous sunset in the Marula savannah of southeastern Madagascar 🌄 #Nature #Photography #Madagascar

First ever coho! 🎣 I'm still dumbfounded these fish (and other anadromous species) swim hundreds of miles inland to spawn. Landed a monster of a native Chinook as well, but no pictures 😞 #Fishing #Nature #Salmon

Guess whose photo that is 😎 But seriously, I have an incredible job. Thrilled to be able to contribute to lemur conservation (especially on #WorldLemurDay) and much more thanks to the support of the IUCN and numerous other orgs and people iucn.org/news/202510/... #Nature #Photography #Conservation

Anyone can vote and it takes less than 30 seconds! Please consider giving our org a boost!

If you're gonna touch grass, it might as well be native

So incredibly grateful to be part of this team! Amazing work being done in an amazing place despite extraordinarily challenging circumstances.

Well, I snapped my rod an hour in, but I still managed to catch these guys (first was 23"!!) even though I was missing the rod's end section Absolutely phenomenal way to close the season on this river #Flyfishing #Nature #Trout

Going #flyfishing at my favorite river for the last time (this season), and I wish I could talk about it. It's the kind of spot that upends most people's perceptions of what trout fishing looks like. It also produces enormous fish. Most folks that fish it know not to name it. It's our secret.

Nothing like getting away from the world for a day, especially when #steelhead are successfully involved #Fishing #Nature #Washington

The situation in #Madagascar is incredibly worrying, and I'm wishing all my friends and colleagues there the best during these uncertain times. Hoping these monumental changes lead to a better future for all of the island's people

The land of Gunnison Sage-Grouse 🦃, which I didn't get to see 😠 Something about a bird being endangered makes them hard to find? Annoying. Anyways, central CO is gorgeous. Here's Needle Rock, an ancient volcanic neck #Nature #Colorado #Photography #Outdoors #Landscape

Things (gesturing broadly) are capital B Bad right now, but my first trip to Colorado is going well so far 🎣🌄 #Flyfishing #Colorado #Nature #Photography

Their greed for perches sickens me 💔 Eastern Kingbirds disagreeing on Yucca stalk ownership in South Dakota #Wildlife #Nature #Photography

There's a solemness to winter that often gives way to peace, or at least quiet. I'm feeling a bit mocked by today's bright, warm weather. This old photo is resonating with me more. #Photography #Washington #PNW #Nature

Sunset over the Stuarts 🌄 I'm not exactly looking forward to winter's long nights and short days, but the light that is available at dawn and dusk certainly helps me feel a little better. #Washington #PNW #Mountains #Nature #Photography

EEEEP! Digging through old photos, again, and found this fairly concerned pika from Tahoma/Mt. Rainier #Wildlife #Washington #PNW #Nature #Photography

As I wrap up a grant report on a lemur conservation project, I'm thinking today about Simone the Greater Bamboo Lemur, the last of her critically endangered species in Ranomafana National Park, and the experience of ecotourism. #Conservation #Wildlife #Nature #Photography

I have a sneaking suspicion I was being watched... #Wildlife #Nature #Photography #Birding

Bluesky is the only social media I have left, so you guys are getting this one instead of Instagram. I'm getting MARRIED!

I photographed a murder 🪦 Robber Fly drinking a Grasshopper 🪰🥤🦗 #Nature #Photography #Insects #Wildlife

🔥🛑 Firebreak maintenance just finished in Madagascar! 🇲🇬 Firebreaks protect Ivohiboro forest from wildfires. The bare soil prevents fires from reaching forest, but the maintenance jobs have also led to a dramatic decrease in fires being set. #Conservation #Restoration #Madagascar #Nature #Wildfire
