Miss Naughty Wolf
This is the lovely Miss Naughty Wolf. She’s a wild woodland creature who loves to romp and chase through the trees, wallow in the cool water of the creek and bask in the sunshine. Someone abandoned her here as a puppy, and she got her name from her razor-sharp, ankle-biting puppy teeth. For the … Read more

“Real Beauty Can’t Be Seen.”
Surely I must soon grow sick of dystopian worlds and apocalyptic visions. Well, not as long as writers keep feeding my habit with books of this caliber.

On the one hand, we wildly over-share every moment and detail of our lives in ways that would have been unthinkable, awkward and uncouth even ten or twenty years ago. At the same time we’ve developed a glossy white-washing effect that … Read more

Female Northern Cardinal
Many prefer the flashier male of the species, and I admit those bold red feathers are hard to ignore. However, I think the ladies have a subtler, more refined beauty in their paler, dusky cloaks. While the human voicebox can produce only one sound at a time, a bird’s syrinx is a paired structure that … Read more
