Hello, I am an environmental nerd, hiker, and nature lover. I have a BA in Environmental Studies & Planning from Sonoma State University (graduated 2016), and am always searching for wildlife. I most frequently hike and observe in Central, Southern, & Northern CA, with some additional observations out of state when traveling or visiting other national parks. I often find newts, salamanders, reptiles, and wildflowers, but I keep an eye out for raptors, mammals, and anything else I can find :) I appreciate any community input and help with identifications as I am often unsure of subspecies!
