I first started dipping into naturalism at one of my lows, back when we were launching a birdspotting app and I wanted to help test it. I got into it immediately and combined with my daily mental health walks it really made me dive back into nature, and appreciate how healing it was to see life's good parts.

As I was already enjoying learning all kinds of stuff about fungi, I started collecting/identifying those I found in the wild as well. Because I'm not an expert I just like to catalog what I find but I don't always know their names and don't want help okay! It's for the fun of learning and exploring.

Eventually I started adding my origamis, plushies, and anything remotely animal to this page and it became one giant ode to nature's million follies.
