An Afternoon with Harris’s Hawks

Posted on 21 Apr 201827 Jun 2019 By Dragonfly No Comments on An Afternoon with Harris’s Hawks
An Afternoon with Harris’s Hawks

For my birthday last year, my husband’s gift to me was a raptor walk–but we could not go during the cooler months, so scheduled it for April 20, yesterday. The owners of the raptors live in the country outside Maple Ridge, and their large yard consists of super-sized bird cages; beyond their home is a…

Cherry Tree in the Winter

Cherry Tree in the Winter

I guess it’s technically spring now, but it just goes to show how long it’s been since I first started this post–and wrote nothing on it–until now. So many things have been going on that I just haven’t had time to blog. One is a new series’ focus at eco-fiction, which I’ll announce shortly. Another…

Here it is December

Here it is December

This morning when I woke up and climbed out of bed, I opened the blinds to gaze out our sliding window to the back yard. It’s a habit I’ve had ever since this summer when I saw Mr. Bear (Mord) out there. This morning was another animal, black in color, but much smaller. It was…

Saving the Rainforests – Conflict Palm Oil

Posted on 1 Nov 201723 Feb 2019 By Dragonfly No Comments on Saving the Rainforests – Conflict Palm Oil
Saving the Rainforests – Conflict Palm Oil

Every year I donate a portion of book sales from my press, Moon Willow Press, to planting trees. It’s really just a niche micro-press, publishing about 2-4 books a year on average. It’s such a huge endeavor for me to run personally that I’ve now put a hold on submissions so I can complete some…

The Wild Horses of the West

The Wild Horses of the West

If you’re a writer, you might have several drafts of things sitting around. I do as well. I have two novels I am actively working on, both in a series. The first novel is just a slight revision. The second is a new book in the series, and over the weekend I just realized exactly…

All that Is Wild

Posted on 20 Sep 201723 Feb 2019 By Dragonfly No Comments on All that Is Wild
All that Is Wild

A couple weeks ago, my husband and I joined some of my coworkers at a brewery for a couple beers after work. One of the coworkers came here from Ireland. He is the same guy who gave us great insights on the best places to go when we visited Ireland last year. That is to…

Roar

Roar

The other morning, after my bear encounter, my husband heard a couple roars out in our back yard. It was early, and I didn’t hear it, and he didn’t get up to look, but I think our bear–and perhaps the sow–may have been back? I find myself constantly looking outside for black bears. On Saturday…

Bears and Wildfires

Bears and Wildfires

We have been submerged in wildfire smoke for the last week or two. So many fires in the interior have sent the smoke our way, but it is sitting over the Vancouver area like a very large hen incubating her progeny. My husband’s cousins were evacuated for two weeks at one point but have finally…

Hobbling in the Anthropocene

Posted on 26 May 201723 Feb 2019 By Dragonfly 2 Comments on Hobbling in the Anthropocene
Hobbling in the Anthropocene

That’s sometimes what I think I should call this blog. For every good week where I can run up to 10 or even 20 miles have been down weeks where I’m stuck on a treadmill, bike, or something else–where when I retrain it feels like I’m hobbling along rather than running. From the get-go, when…

Spring Seems to Be Around the Corner

Posted on 17 Feb 201723 Feb 2019 By Dragonfly No Comments on Spring Seems to Be Around the Corner
Spring Seems to Be Around the Corner

I feel like a turtle poking its head out to sense the sun and warmer weather after having hid myself in a shell most of the winter–for the past two months to be precise. I’ve had a few times when I’ve been able to run outside, but not many, having to rely on mostly indoor…
