Receive Text UpdatesI love to admire the beautiful wildflowers, fruit trees, and sunflowers that my family and I planted this year on our farm to create habitat for our wild pollinators. Also, I enjoy reaching the summit when we go on a hike to get some pictures while taking in the wide view. Overall, my favorite part is seeing the beauty that nature can create.
My favorite animal is an axolotl salamander. Some of the reasons why are because of their habitat, diet, and how they look! If you are in a river where they live, be sure not to step on one of these friends because they are endangered! They love to eat tiny worms, certain plants, and fish that are smaller than them. To me, it looks like they are always smiling. Combined with their tiny eyes and feathery antennae they are beautiful and cute. All in all axolotl is my favorite animal.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved hunting and fishing with my Dad. We have been on so many journeys and adventures like turkey and deer hunting, gar, bass, and catfishing. I was 8 when I went turkey hunting for the first time. I was a little scared that the turkey might jump out of the bushes and attack me, but I knew that if it did, my dad would save me, or I would do it myself. (Lol, this boy’s imagination…). I finally got one, ate him up, and let me tell you, it was amazing!
