I used to be very scared of spiders; nowadays I'm fine with most of them, and I actually love jumping spiders. They're just so cute. This little one (Phidippus johnsoni) checked me out while I was out doing photography the other day.

My favourite sandwich season! This one includes cream cheese, bittercress, nipplewort, miner's lettuce, chickweed, and young chives.
I just sent out my wild food, regenerative farming, and art workshops list for this season. If you'd like to be on the mailing list, let me know.

The Bowen Island Library is the best. They sent me a holiday card. I thought I couldn’t love them more. #libraries #librarians #BowenIsland
Last of my #BowenIsland posts for a while, including a shout out to @comaps.app Now for a relaxing long weekend of Vancouver adventures and actually being “home” after travels. blog.bmann.ca/3lxluncf6pk24

Back home in Vancouver

Took the 3pm 257 bus and just barely made it on the 3:55pm ferry to #BowenIsland (there’s a 10minute cut off and the bus arrives at like 3:44pm). Standing on the main deck for the crossing. Car overload ahead of the long weekend.
Today I’m doing a test commute from #BowenIsland to @z-space.ca Started at 7:03am at my parents place on Foxglove lane. Across the road and along the forest path that comes out on Cardena road. At the ferry dock by 7:13am.
Beautiful sunset at YVR Airport on take off and the whole of #BowenIsland
Still need time to sort through my wildlife photography backlog, but in the meantime, here's a nice shot I took today at Apodaca Provincial Park on Bowen Island.
