Black kites!
I love watching them soar. I’m so obsessed.

A moment where I had to stop and take in where I was. As a person who prefers quiet and dislikes urban spaces, I fought this spot surprisingly charming (so much color!).

Before I flew out to Kerala, my sister jokingly told me that if I saw a wedding there, I should crash it and get in on the enjoyment. I rolled my eyes and said, “Why would I see a wedding?”

Why is there a wedding happening outside right now? 🤣

The little guy will be fine. I took it outside and let it go as everyone stared at me like I was crazy.

FYI-I’m in Kerala, India. Many photos to come.

I just caught a tiny gecko in my hotel room and escorted outside. Heh, I usually leave them alone when they come inside because they eat bugs and spiders, but in this hotel, it was going to die. Nothing to eat.

Caught it under a glass but not before it let go of its tail to try and distract me! 😁

I’m in Qatar.

Heh, from one desert (Phoenix, AZ) to another on the other side of the planet. 😊🏜️🐪

Saw this kettle of black vultures from my hotel room in Miami.

They always look like they’re on some important business, even when they’re just riding air and vibing. They have CEO energy for no reason.

“We are majestic. We are organized. We are…looking for a dumpster.”

Those dogs did NOT approve of that robot dog, 🤭. #MiamiBookFair

Saw this male vermillion flycatcher yesterday while on my walk, 😍. I’ve seen a few but never at rest.
