Receive Text UpdatesKaelina loves & appreciates that EVERYTHING in nature has a cycle & many of these cycles are tied together. She loves nature’s indescribable beauty and the senses of peace she gets when exploring. She loves being ‘present’ in nature & is attune to habitats, sounds, tracks & hidden critters. She also LOVES a good thunder & lightening storm. The feel of the air as the storm approaches, the darkness it brings, the sounds, the visuals and the calm that follows.
Owls! They have been her favorite animal since she was about two. She loves how majestic they are. She loves that there are so many varieties of owls and each one has incredible characteristics. Her 2 favorites are the Snow Owl and the Great horned Owl. She is amazed how the Snow Owl can hear the slightest movement of critters through many inches of snow. She loves how the Great horned owl is almost silent when taking off an in-flight due to their soft wings.
Kaelina has a few favorite activities. She loves climbing trees and appreciates how each tree is different. Each tree has different bark, textures, bug hole & different limbs to carefully navigate. She enjoys hiking and exploring new places. She also loves to play games with her siblings where they pretend they live off the land. They build shelters from trees & shrubs, make beds from ferns, leaves & moss & build campfire rings to cook pretend food that they gathered in the forest.
