had a visitor yesterday #barredowl (i think?) #owls #pacificnorthwest #pnw

sound off, it’s just our dishwasher and us whispering “oh my goddddd.” apologies it’s a little blurry, it’s from behind our front door which has a hanging screen

the praying mantis that has been hanging out on our window screen found a mate! i’ve legit never seen a praying mantis in the wild (?) before so i was worrying she would die without getting some lovely simp brain #prayingmantis #bugs #pnw

edit: we had named the female Gwendolyn, don’t think we will bother to name the male lol
