I love discovering new creatures and learning about them! It’s really fun to observe how they live and what they do, especially if it isn’t safe to interact. I also like exploring new places and seeing what I can find.
I love so many- my top favorites are Scarlet Macaws , freshwater animals and fish AND all Ocean Wildlife.

It is so fun đź’™ finding raccoon prints in the morning! I spend a lot of time digging and looking for rocks &treasure at the beach.When we go hiking my mom gives me the map and I love leading us on the path.I’m also learning how to identify native edible plants & fruit.
