It feels like it's time for a new #introduction

I'm Daniel! He / him.

I'm a husband and Master #Naturalist from Louisiana and living in northeast #Oregon.

I post about #birds, #birding, #insects, #NativePlants, #iNaturalist, and everything else that I find in our travels around this beautiful Earth of ours.

I am a practitioner of #Soto #Zen #Buddhism, a #photographer, web developer, wood carver, and burgeoning gardener.
