As the end of the semester is coming right around the corner, I can’t help but feel sad to leave my place. I have had a great semester getting to know the area, watch as winter animals pranced around, see the trees bud and finally bloom, watch as new plants rise up from the ground, […]

It has finally begun getting warmer, and although snow is coming and going as it pleases, I feel that spring has finally sprung. As I visited my place this afternoon I was sure that I would see some sign of wildlife, but either my eyes have not yet adjusted to the ground without snow on […]

This year, I spent my week of vacation sea kayaking Little Tybee Island in coastal Georgia. This was quite the adventure, and I was surprised on how much beauty can be held in one place. Even in the city of Savannah we were able to see a barred owl, hanging out in one of the […]
