Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Apparently I’m one of the people eligible for the healthcare “refund”/bribe Tr*mp is mailing out. What in the capitalization hell is going on with this letter? 020
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 15/09/2026It’s my birthday so of course I had to stop into my local indie bookstore @spokeandwordbooks.bsky.social and sign the only remaining copy of my book in the store! 6170
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 15/09/2026This is who you’re hurting when you use snap traps! This young skunk reached for bait in the trap and got his paw stuck. He’d probably been there all night and might have been stuck longer if my friend hadn’t seen this and called me to help. Do. Not. Put. Traps. In. Your. Yard. 230
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Got to see the very controversial tablescape at the Oregon State Fair today. 140
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Absolutely delighted that I got to listen to this episode while on my way to release some rehabbed skunks. These stinkpeas had been orphaned and I spent so much time making them leaf-based skunk enrichment when they were in care. I think they were amazed to find crunchy leaves all around them! 1433
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It turns out when you take 80% of sugar out of a candy, the only amazing taste it has is amazingly bad. 030
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 18/07/2026This incredibly cute moth was really going to town on the dregs of my night cereal. 010
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 18/07/2026I’m rewatching The Lion King and can tell I’m in my 30s because I used to have a crush on teen Simba and now I’m like, damn that Mufasa’s really got it. 020
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 30/06/2026I don’t get the “birds aren’t real” thing but I am actually shocked that this Lazuli Bunting is a real bird that exists in the same world I do. 140
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 16/06/2026It was a high of 95 today in Portland, Oregon and this sign popped up on a telephone pole! 030
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Today I learned Hey, Arnold! is NOT set in NYC but some fictional mashup of Seattle, Portland, and Brooklyn I have never felt more lied to! 020
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Could not believe someone had a GOONER license plate 290
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Just checked out seeds from my library!! Libraries are so good. 160
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 23/05/2026For the last six years I’ve volunteered at the local wildlife rehab center. A few weeks ago I got to release a crow! I made a little video about the experience if anyone wants to see this beautiful bird fly free! #birdlovers 818023
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Just saw this letter from The Sun that the IRS has revoked their nonprofit status. I know of several magazines that operate as nonprofits and wonder if this is a standalone event or something that’s going to be a sweeping change moving forward? www.thesunmagazine.org/articles/289... 031
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Finishing up this memoir by a woman who joined her husband to live in the arctic in the 1930s. They had a teenage daughter at home who I guess was fine. Happy Mother’s Day! (Really love this book so far. Moms should have wild adventures too.) 010
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Or a cute little banana slug making their way across a path. 110
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 27/04/2026You might look down while writing and see a bumble bee! 100
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Does anyone know what store would carry a single bungee cord lock? I put some on my day hike bag and want to tie it off. But I need one, not 25! 110
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Met this cold bumblebee today and moved her off the trail so she didn’t get smooshed! 050
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 23/04/2026It seems impossible that I got the most beautiful, perfect dog in the world and yet here she is! 010
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 22/04/2026If you’re a reporter covering Gertie, the world’s oldest living chicken, and want another expert to weigh in, I’ve got you! I wrote a book about chickens and am always happy to talk. They live a lot longer than people think! 081
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 16/04/2026I have a ton of deadlines so of course I spent a couple hours making flyers for my book and posting them up around town. 050
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 03/04/2026A GOOD ANIMAL by @saramaurerwrites.bsky.social is the most beautiful novel I’ve read in a while. The setting, the sheep, the characters all felt so real I couldn’t believe I’d never see them again when I finished the last sentence. A heart-squeeze of a story. #booksky 041
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 31/03/2026This review of UNDER THE HENFLUENCE might be my favorite one yet. The four stars adds so much mystery. Is one star being taken away because it led to her getting chickens? Are chickens themselves proving to be a 4-star experience? A real “baby shoes never worn” of a review. #chicken 080
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 30/03/2026I don’t know what this insane year has in store but at least 2026 will always be the year I met a capybara IRL 090
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 18/03/2026If you enjoy things like this, do I have a book for you… 030
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Surveying drainage ditches for amphibians as part of a citizen science project for @johnsoncreekwc.bsky.social. The best way I’ve spent a Tuesday in a long time. 050
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 16/03/2026I took my first darkroom photography class this weekend and am very proud of these pictures I shot and developed! It’s nice to slowly be learning more skills in this medium. 061
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 27/02/2026A copy of @thesunmagazine.bsky.social to read in the sun 010
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 27/02/2026Got my old lady blanket coat and a rocking camp chair because it may be 40 degrees but it’s sunny and nothing will stop me from reading outside! 230
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 31/01/2026I’m doing a citizen science project to count amphibian eggs this spring. We got our in person training and gear today. Why do I love waders? So cool to get to make a difference for these creatures in my community! To find the frog, you must dress like a frog. 250
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 23/01/2026Picked up Ilya Kaminsky’s DEAF REPUBLIC today and this was the first poem. With solidarity to everyone protesting today. 010
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 23/01/2026I recently learned it is called a “paw bouquet” when dogs scrunch all their feet together. Which makes this kind of like “paw ikebana” 160
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 21/01/2026I am really loving Katherine Larson’s THE WEDDING OF THE FOXES. She references so many authors and texts I’m not familiar with (a huge plus) and the looseness and space in the essays gives me a lot of time to think. Have any of you read it? @milkweededitions.bsky.social #booksky 020
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 21/01/2026A few sweet photos I took at Bonneville Dam of fish who may or may not be Herman the famous sturgeon. www.earthisland.org/journal/inde... 040
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I find learning about wildlife and wildlife rehab to be immensely fulfilling. Spent part of my day with a group of people who all came out to rescue this bald eagle and take him to the local care facility. 2969
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 01/01/2026Not me alternating between coffee and electrolyte drink this am. Happy 2026! 020
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 30/12/2025Emma Pattee’s TILT is out in paperback today and I fully expect it to become a NYT bestseller! On the surface it’s a page-turner about a 8 month pregnant woman trying to find her husband after The Big One hits PDX. But it’s so much more than that. Highly recommend! Go read immediately! #booksky 050
Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 26/12/2025Got my new copy of @orionmagazine.bsky.social and am thrilled to be in this issue with writers I know and love like @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social @k-e-c.bsky.social and J. Drew Lanham. Can’t wait to dig in! 3252

Tove Danovich @tkdano.bsky.social · 24/12/2025I’m reading the book The Secret Garden and Mary Lennox is the most autistic coded child I’ve ever come across. 130
