Spring returns quietly.
Petals. Pollinators. Rabbits in the grass.
The forest waking up one small moment at a time.
Have a blessed Ostara. 🌿

A rustic wooden dock extends into a colorful marshland surrounded by lush green trees, reeds, and shallow water covered in patches of bright green algae. The sky is partly cloudy with vivid blues and soft white clouds, creating a contrast between the aged dock and the vibrant natural landscape. I respectfully acknowledge that the wetlands where these photos were taken are located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the Indigenous peoples connected to Haskell Indian Nations University. I recognize the importance of this land to the Native communities and express my gratitude to the Haskell Indian Nations and their enduring stewardship of this space.
