I blame my daughter Meghan for my obsession with all things nature. At at very young age she started asking about the birds in our suburban back yard. We purchased feeders, binoculars and books. It's 20 years later and we are both nature nerds. What started out as birding turned into a love of native plants, then spread to Leps and Odes and Herps. I love citizen science and was the site manager for the monthly amphibian monitoring at Devine Lake Park in Leander, TX before Covid. I am currently studying Botany at Oregon State University with an intereste in ecology, especially plants as larval sources for lepidoptera.
