I grew up in the Oklahoma crosstimbers and have a B.S. in wildlife ecology from Oklahoma State University. Lately I’ve begun learning about Lichens. Other interests include crochet, various other arts and crafts with varying skill, and science in general. I have a Maine coon cat (Nerys) and a Great Dane (Jadzia), who will show up in many of my pictures since she goes exploring with me and likes to be helpful.
