grizzly bears in denali national park feed on berries, which grow every autumn from alaska’s otherwise barren tundra landscape, to fatten up for the winter. in order to meet their nutritional requirements, the bears will consume upwards of 200,000 berries in a single day. the plants with the red leaves produce blueberries.

People who recycle and put their trash in their pocket until they find a trash can and people who pick up liter when they see it and people who still cut the six-pack rings so animals don’t get trapped or choke on them and people who move turtles out of the road and people who stop for ducks and geese to cross all have a very special place in my heart. You are so good to this world and earth. I hope you know that.

Forever obsessed with the way running water sculpts the ice. Sometimes you get these really elegant and whimsical rounded shapes, other times carved ripples that look a bit like contour lines on a topographical map, and they're always so so beautiful.

“Many freeze-thaw cycles over several days caused ice to form and recede, leaving ridges that resemble contour lines.” -Mary Anne White
