Birds are the majority of my thoughts! I study interior least terns for grad school & my bird job.

*Will probably complain a lot*

Other interests include: reading, napping, Investigation Discovery, true crime podcasts, learning, Viking* history, mental health, music, IU football, eating food! 😊

We said goodbye to this sweet angel today. My heart is broken and I really hate grief.

This purple rock reminds me of something very specific from childhood - but I can’t think of what. Anybody else? #help

I spent today looking for whooping cranes #birds #birbPosting & let me tell ya when I finally got that beep on the radio I screamed #biologist #ornithology @birds

(ID: a vast cornfield with three far away white birds which are whooping cranes)

Here’s a cute crab from my August trip to Chincoteague Island.

ID: a small,tan (almost translucent) crab emerging from its hole on the beach.

I got my first squishmallow for Christmas and my lil #ActuallyAutistic heart is so happy.
Thank you capitalism, for not giving me paid holidays because I am a lowly temp employee so I have to work on holidays anyway.

Here’s another #Cat pic bc why not. #GreenBeanBiscuit has resting bitchface, but I promise she’s happy.

I was gone for 2 nights and #greenbeanbiscuit is acting like I was gone for months. #cats @cats
