Raging against the machine in Texas.
Mostly insects, plants, and fungi.
I’m definitely not an expert, but I am trying to teach myself about the natural world around me in an attempt to save it. My activism is largely just trying to steward the very tiny space I occupy.

I'm a gardener who prioritizes county specific native plants.
USDA zone 9B

#Bumblebee visiting another white #flower in the garden, an Althea (aka Rose of Sharon). The #bumblebees seem to prefer white #flowers around the house, or maybe it just appears that way because they are more noticeable against the white.
