We interrupt this message to bring you snow fleas! These little buggies produce an anti-freeze protein that allows them to stay active all winter. On warm days they come up to party in the snow!

@DETickTalk When I was monitoring loons one summer, I had several men ask me if I was able to carry my canoe. Some asked me while I was making my way to a lake with the canoe already on my shoulders 😂

I wanna go on Sesame Street. And talk about how cool common birds are. My dream

Many birds will lay down if they feel comfortable, relaxed, and safe enough, but happy vultures take this bird pancake to the next level. I love it when Sev melts into a puddle.

@JasonWardNY My family's like "look down at this dog someone's walking on the trail" and I'm like "look up in the trees, the black eyed juncos are back for the winter".

@punkvenus Gorgeous! I love the mottled one

[Laura Unfried @laura_unfried]

@punkvenus Note: I don't recommend catching wild ducks. These are my domestic ducks having a nest dispute 😊🦆

[Laura Unfried @laura_unfried]

@punkvenus Duck bellies. Catching a duck is a challenge, but the reward of rubbing its belly is sooooooo worth it
