A visit to my homeland of Central New York in the fall is not complete until for me until I've been apple picking. I've been trying to grow apples at my home in Florida for the last three years, but unsurprisingly I have been very unsuccessful. It was a chilly day at Beak and Skiff, but it was wonderful to share it with my mom. This snowy apple is a Ruby Frost. #applepicking #cny #homeiswheretheapplesarepicked
Kevin Chang, one of the keynote speakers today at the #naaee2018 conference sang a beautiful and sorrowful song for Hawaii. This recording does not do it justice, as the experience was very emotional for those of us in attendance. If anyone knows the song title and writer, please let me know
The second day of the conference is over and I am so happy with all the helpful and inspiring presentations and workshops I've been part of. I've learned about social justice and environmental education(EE), civic engagement and EE, incorporating EE research into your program development, and more. Jane Goodall's video message to us was a real treat. I've also just had a ton of great conversations. #naaee2018 #leef2018 #leef #environmentaleducation
This is fantastic. Check it out and take the pledge #naaee2018 #leef2018
I'm so excited to be in Spokane for the NAAEE conference. Today is a workshop for representatives from each state's environmental education group. #environmentaleducation #naaee2018
Dr. Mark Deyrup's keynote address on Saturday at the Fall 2018 @leef.florida mini-conference. This was my first time as a conference coordinator, and I am happy to say that the meeting went off without a hitch. About 65 educators coming together to learn and share their expertise and passion for environmental literacy in Florida. This was also a special conference because we held it in tandem with Friday's 5th Annual Conference of the EE Alliance of SW Florida. I'm also very appreciative of the @conservancyswf for offering us space and help with coordination. #leef2018 #eeworks #environmentaleducation
Fond memories from my days hanging out with the amazing people of the Sweet Chariot Music Festival. Rich Jenkins and Suzy Williams working on music together. Swan's Island, Maine. 2012 #sweetchariot #americanmusic
The Organization of Biological Field Stations represents hundreds of research sites worldwide. Their annual meeting is going on this week in Acadia National Park in Maine. My poster was accepted, but I couldn't go myself. Thankfully a colleague agreed to bring it up with him. I'm hoping to visit more field stations and photograph their researchers. #obfs #fieldstation #conservation #stemcareers #conservationphotography
It finally happened. After years of handling devil-rider walking sticks, notorious for their ability to spray a painful chemical in your eyes, I got sprayed. I was holding the two in the photo (small male on female's back) to show a 3rd grade school group. When I went to put them down, they sprayed me directly in the eyes. Within seconds it started to hurt and I could barely open my eyes. Luckily, there was a nearby sink I could run to and wash my eyes out before it got too bad. #environmentaleducation
Yesterday was my 33rd birthday. My parents flew down from NY to celebrate with me. Today we went to Highlands Hammock State Park, their favorite Florida park, and had some fun with photography. #multipleexposure #family #selfie
Catching little brown bats in flight is not easy. University of Calgary student Brittany Steed is setting out several specialized nets - with fiber so fine as to be almost invisible - on a bat flyway in a forest in Kananaskis Country, Alberta. She is helping to monitor the little brown bats in the region, who have so far been free of the deadly white nose fungus that has brought terrible losses to bat populations across the continent. #bats #science #biology #stemcareers #kananaskiscountry
@myucalgary student Sean Bishop treks through a steep alpine meadow during survey work for rare butterflies on the top of Jumpingpound Mountain in Kananaskis Country. The mountain is named for a nearby site once used as a buffalo jump by the Blackfoot First Nations. #conservation #biology #jumpingpound #kananaskiscountry #mountains
