Northern Harrier at Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge #birdsinflight #northernharrier

Did you have blue-glowing alien snails on your bingo card? #snails #uv365plus #macromonday #macro #photography

This cutie showed up in my yard (good news), except it was in the middle of the afternoon and it seemed to have an injured leg (bad news, and possibly rabid). Long lens helped me keep a safe distance. #skunksunday #skunks #wildlife #nature #photography

I went up to #SNWR Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge yesterday and there were loads of birds! #birds #wildlife #nature #photography

#toroid Thursday? This is seriously one of the weirdest #mushrooms I've ever seen and it looks like an ouroborous caterpillar! If anyone knows the exact species, I'd love to know. #fungusamongus #nature #weird #photography #macro
